I'm looking to make fast action films in my Honda S2000 and there are a few requirements I have:
1. It must be mountable (able to accept a tripod)
2. Video quality must be capable of handling high speeds (no chopiness, high refresh rate, very stable picture)
3. Video quality must be able to deal with outdoor conditions (sudden shifts in light like entering a tunnel on a sunny day, decent visibility in rain, etc)
4. It must have a good quality audio input (I plan on using a microphone near the engine bay, btw any recommendations there would be handy as well)
5. Software (something simple, no gimmicky formats, something that would work on YouTube and a HDTV)
6. Price (no higher than $800, will consider factory refurb)
7. Durability (I'm thinking Sony. Thoughts?)
Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
