mr2mk1g 10 #3 November 26, 2003 Camcorder: You'll only be recomended Sony mini DV. The best are the PC series (at least for side mounting - TRV's go better on the top). Make sure it has an "M" series battery or it wont last as long as you'd like. SLR: you'll get more responses, but I've seen a lot of Cannon EOS's about. edit: is this a poll or are you asking for advice? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skydiver51 0 #4 November 26, 2003 Yep Sony is the best. I have already gone thru a JVC mini. It laste almost 2 yrs. Had my Sony PC 101 for a year and not one problem. The JVC had started acting up in a little over 6 months after putting it in the air. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prost 0 #5 November 26, 2003 Unlike what others have experienced, I have had god results from JVC. I sold one of my old JVC cameras to a videograper just getting started about 2 years ago and it is still going strong with no problems. I would recommend Sony though and that is what I jump now. Sony has much better slo motion and other effects along with the ability to use a Cam eye. As far as photography goes I am still using film so I will speak about it. The best SLR camera I have used is the Minolta Maxxum 5. It is the lightest 35mm SLR out there and faster than the comparable canons and nikons. The only negative is that it has a special plug for the remote shutter release. I take there plug and modify it for my uses. That being said if all you want to do is shoot student photos and hand the roll to them when you are done, I recommend using one of the little Canon Elph LT cameras modified to a remote shutter release. They will take better pictures than you would think, and the APS system is very easy to load when you are in a hurry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
