Page 1 of which low end camcorder.
Photography Forum
i am looking to buy a relative a camcorder in the coming days. i have spent a while researching but cannot make a decision. the two i have seen that seem to fit the bill are the Kodak Playfull and the GE DVi. both are around £80 which is our budget, as we need a memory card too. our relative has a normal camera but wants something simple to take some video when they are out, on holiday etc.. basic day to day stuff. they don`t want one with lots of options, in fact one button or option would be plenty. the size of these look good too, can be put in a bag etc. and they both, i think, have usb arm so can be plugged into laptop or to a tv, again i think thats possible with at least one of them. the simpler the better.
i know there are better out there etc..but i need one that ticks several boxes so it`s not necessarily about quality although i don`t want to get them a rubbish one. any help would be much appreciated or any other suggestions. many thanks.
RE: which low end camcorder.
Try ASDA and Tesco. We picked uo a nice SD Samsung with 30x optical zoom for under £70 with case at ASDA during a sale. HTH
