Hello there, just need some expert advice to help find a camcorder that will fit my needs.

I do video editing as a hobby. I record video game footage and make music videos. I use Sony Vegas to edit everything. Im trying to find a camcorder so that i can incorporate real life footage into video game footage. Like for instance record a real life background and then mask a game character to walk on it and stuff like that.

So in conclusion im looking for a camcorder that will record at 1440/900 or 1440/600 or higher resolutions. It needs to be the highest quality possible. Also, i would like a camcorder that can record at 60+ Frames Per Second or higher for slow motion shots. And one last thing, its almost a must i think, that the camcorder be able to record uncompressed videos. Not avi, wmp or whatever format. But uncompressed videos.

My price range is around 1000$ to 1500$. If you could just suggest a camcorder thats as close to what i want that would be great. Also, if there is a camcorder that can do all that i want but its price is more them 1500$ please list it any way.

Thank You in Advance.
