I got one for my lad a while back. You get what you pay for - the cheaper models are full of chintzy plastic. Personally I'd stick with tape as the medium, mini DV or Digital 8. The tapes are cheap and you can burn to DVD after editing on the iBook :-) <http://www.shortcourses.com/video/chapter02.htm> HTH Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________
