bobo67

I want to get a High def camcorder but I have know idea which one to get.

What it need to have.
-High def
-Good sound
-Under £200 ($290) or a bit over.
-10x optical zoom or above
-NOT DV or any format that has to be copyed real time.

Is it possible for that price?

Any help is appreciated.

The Panny HDC-SD9 is $365 through the internet. It meets all the requirements you posted.

I can't believe how lame you other responders are, it's like you don't want to even use your time to help a poster out.

You're all lazy and lame.

I think if you actually spend a few minutes looking at all the threads here you'll find many of us have already provided a lot of information on questions like this. But when the request is so basic and has been asked and answered so many times, and can be answered so easily by a simple web search, it just seems redundant to put more work into this than the original poster is willing to do. Even the most cursory search of the threads already here reveals that there are no decent options that meet the OP's requirements at his price, save the little toy Aiptek mentioned a few threads down. (EDIT -- That thread is actually now a sticky right at the top of the forum, making it even easier to find for even the least observant poster.)

But thanks for your answer anyway. By the way, the SD9 is not available from any reputable dealer for less than about $500, ranging up to $700 or more, so this advice is not only meaningless, but dangerous. So caveat emptor.

I rarely have trouble with internet dealers, but I usually check them out before buying. you know that prices change daily, and the panny could have been bought for less than $400 before the holiday was past.

all it takes is a little patience, and research.

Still,I gave an answer to a product that met his request, and is cheaper than anything else with the same capabilities. So go on and continue not giving a specific answer to the op. You are lazy and lame.

This whole forum is lame. Not once have I ever gotten a resolution to my initial questions, most of you here know less than I do, and that's lame.

Anyone who bothers to check out your voluminous post count will see that you've only actually asked a question once, and then you got several good, specific and accurate replies. Most of your posts are just tantrums, screaming inaccurate info, as when you couldn't figure out the search function the way the rest of us did.

From your posts you appear to know a lot about computers, which explains your complete lack of social skills. Perhaps when you graduate from junior high school you'll learn more adjectives than "lame."

Hey Lamer,

at the end of the thread, I am the only person who provided an answer. All you did was criticize.

shut up and sit down
