Answer 3

There are three types camcorder available now, miniDV use tape as record media, DVD use DVD disc and HDD use internal hard disc drive.  In this range you can buy lowest quality HDD, mid quality of DVD or best miniDV.  For miniDV I suggest   Canon ZR850.  It has highest rating in this type. The sensor is 1K, higher than 680 in other models. You can find it online for $200(don't believe some site for $160, since they will try to sell you more accessory) or in retailer for $250.  A new model of ZR950 just hit market but no rating is available.
