........back in the day I paid over £400 sheets for it and it's no going for £144 !

Combined with a B-Hague mount you'll have a neat little set-up for minimal spend

Catch ye

Nice one Cal, I was after a camcorder too, thats a good one to look at for the price!! Was pondering getting a cannon though, but that might just be the ticket! ;)

As Cal say these tings are great for a bit of in car footage, I still own a PC100 Sony and it's great although it's playing up a bit now so I bought a new Canon HV20!

However be warned the HV20 is awful for use as a in car camera as the lens shakes too much when screwed to a camera mount, apart from that it is staggering.

Cheers, Rob.

Just bear in mind that HDD camcorders won't work when attached to the mount in car or out. I had two and the shock caused them to cut out. It's a choice between old-fashioned tape or the much more versitile and easy to use solid-state jobs. My camera was £400 but I'm sure it will be a good bit chepear than that now. It's the Samsung VP HXM10.

The HV20 is a not a HDD by the way, it's a HDV.

Or are you giving another tip! :driving:
