camera mpeg capability vs. HD camcorder
Posted: Sat Jan 03, 2009 10:50 pm
Hi All,
I was thinking about switching from my HP R927 to an HD camcorder for backcountry photography. My friends and i mostly go to fish, but we do wildlife and scenery shots as well (bear encounters, and coyotes chasing deer were memorable). Last year's trip was a lot of still shots which are still great, but we started to use the MPeg features more, with the audio/video, it told more of the story of the trips.
I was looking at some of the smaller Canon HD units like the VIXIA HF10. The main problem I couldn't solve was recharge. I would absolutely love that capability, but could not find a 12v solar recharge solution with them.
Any ideas would be appreciated,
Russ
