Hi
I'm planning to purchase a new portable HD mini-DV camcorder but don't know which one to get. At the moment the Canon miniDV HV-10 is my preference...BUT...I know it does not have mic-in or audio line-in options, which is a serious problem. It can obviously record it's own machine noise with the in build mics while filming at low noise situations.
Can someone advise me on a good HD mini DV under $850...also portable, which has either mic-in or audio in-line. I plan to use external mics to reduce the machine noise during low noise filming.
