I recently bought a sony handycam dcr-dvd610, which I plan to return soon. The camera works fine using the memory stick duo, but when recording directly to dvd, it records the sound of the dvd spinning inside, and it can be heard when I play it back on the camera, computer or dvd player. I don't know if this is a malfunction, or if all dvd cameras will do that. I don't want a mini-dv camera, even though it has better quality recordings. I want to be able to easily transfer the videos to pc. I considered a hard drive camcorder, but I don't know if they are reliable. The hybrid dvd camcorders seemed like a good option, since you can record to both dvd and memory card. What should I do? What kind of camera should I get? Any suggestions?
Thanks.
