Just how down low? Holding a camcorder even a small one for an hour at a time is a chore. I like my FH1, but it's stabilization sucks, so without a monopod or table clamp or other means of taking the human out of the equation (for stabilization anyway), not that great of results. Kodak Zi8 for that pocket thing, but no real zoom abilities on those types. TM700 is probably the better cheap consumer camcorder, not to imply cheap. And it has a fan which has it's own set of issues. Go pro, american scientific and others in the helmet type cams. Not always ideal as little to no zoom, super wide angle / fish eye lens by default, and other quirks. But waterproof and other pluses. For those it rained, or hot summer day and you sweat a lot things. Or just that drink accident in the same bag as the video gear. There's a few spy like cams, but battery life generally sucks and no sizeable sensors to do well in low light. And like the helmet cams, no zoom ability.
