I want to use the video camera more either in a constant video mode where I could get it to dump down individual frames, or in a 'still photo' mode. Not quite sure about the internal mechanics of them, but they're definitely designed to take more frames than a DSLR. A DSLR would probably fail and need repair several times over the course of the year.
I'm also looking at using digital compact cameras as they are more reliable for this sort of thing than DSLRs. Just thought an HD video camera would be the most reliable solution.
