Any recommends on a mini DV camcorder (that does digital stills also) for around £300?

Looking for one that will also do reasonable quality digital stills, with a memory card slot. DV in is not essential, as I have a DVD burner

Any assistance greatly appreciated!

I doubt very much whether you`ll get the feature-set that you require for £300 or anything close to it.
Double your wish-price might get close.

Looks like it might do the job mate; I only want it for family occasions etc, I`m not going to be the next Spielberg!

As long as it does stills as well, I can ditch my current digicam.
