Canon Vixia 3.3MP camcorder Hard drive or Flash memory?
I plan on buying a Vixia 3.3MP camcorder, I have the option of 32GB Flash Drive or 60 GB Hard Drive, the camera’s use will be mainly family video’s and high school football games. Also we will need to send the video’s overseas to famliy.
I would suggest the flash version. While it is true that the video should be about the same from either camcorder because they record to the same file formats, there are other differences unrelated to video quality.
In this case, you said you would be recording HS football games. There is potentially loud enough audio when you want to record that will cause enough vibration so the hard drive camcorder will not record – this is because in a high vibration environment, the camera wants to protect the disc platters in the hard drive. Flash memory and miniDV tape based camcorders do not have this vibration issue.
(Though not part of your use descriptiopn, it should be noted that the other issue hard drive based camcorders have is in high altitude. Anything over about 9,700 feet and there is a good chance the hard drive will not be able to record. Both the vibration and altitude issues are given about two lines – recognizing the issues exist – in the camcorder’s manuals.)
Be aware that miniDV tape continues to provide best available video quality. Next best are consumer flash and hard drive based camcorders.
Once you get the video into your computer and readable by a video editor, you can format the video to whatever the far end needs to play back. This can include DVD-file format video, computer readable file format video that happens to be burned to a DVD or uploads to sites like vimeo.com for high quality without having to send anything but a liink.
