Sony Trv260 Canon Zr950 Panasonic PV-GS90 any camcorder with 25x or higher optical zoom like the first two mentioned! There are not too many good HDD camcorders that are good for filming UFOS. For the simple fact that most HDD camcorders have a low optical zoom, horrible night mode and don't have viewfinders or mounts to attach LED lights to them. To even attempt to brighten the filming area at night. Even though some do have a high optical zoom level. To say the least. The image quality becomes distorted at anything higher then 25x optical zoom. So it would be pointless to by a HDD camcorder with a optical zoom level higher then 25x. Remember that Hard Drive (HDD) camcorders are not High Def camcorders. HDD camcorder have the same CCD quality camcorders as with the old digital 8's and mini dv camcorders. With an image quality level of only 480 pixels. Here is a list of a few Hard Drive camcorders Ive' found. That might be suitable to fit your needs however. Sony Dcr-Sr42/40x optical zoom, night shot/infrared. Panasonic Sdr H85/78x optical zoom Panasonic Sdr H40/42x optical zoom Sony HDR-HR150/ 20x optical zoom/ no viewfinder. Now if you want High Def. I would recommend these following camcorders. (1)Panasonic HDC Sd60k <---This one takes a media card. Its not HDD or takes dv tapes. *it saves information on a media card! (2) Sony HDR HC9 (10x optical zoom) However the right telephoto lens could fix the weak optical zoom level. Like I said previously *there isn't any really good ((NEW)) camcorders out there that really gets the job done for filming UFOS. As far as upping the quality. I'm waiting for Sony or any photograph company to make that dream camcorder. High Def/dv tape with still photo SD card capability, at least 25x optical zoom, a viewfinder with good lux plus.night-shot and mounts to add LED lights or an Infrared illuminator. To add in, You can get a Hard Drive camcorder but make sure you can attach a LED light to it for night sightings. Because these new Hard Drive camcorders have a horrible night mode. You can barely see what your filming at night. You will be wasting your money. If I were you I would got with Sony trv model. Even though its not HDD or HD. It's gets the job done for me while filming UFOS. |

Filming UFO sightings... User ID: 1063898 United States 08/10/2010 11:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Weigh in GLP techie's Looking for the best HARD DRIVE camcorder for UFO filming Any input ?? _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ The below camcorders have 25x optical zoom or higher. Also they are HDD and HD. Panasonic hd-sd60 Samsung f40 Panasonic h85 Panasonic tm55 Panasonic hs80 Sony Sx63 Panasonic h40 Sony dcr-sr42 Canon HG20<------ this one has the best low lux for night footage. However the optical zoom is only 15x zoom. I would buy a telephoto scope to maximize the zoom. Somthing very cool for a good price I think you might like is the Skywatcher Acuter 70mm digital scope. You can record and take stills of the sky. I have one and its awesome. It only cost $150-200 they range in prices. B&Hphoto in New York have them. |

ankaka User ID: 12822101 China 03/20/2012 03:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Getting a HD camcorder is taking a step backward in Video Quality. HD camcorders Interpolate the video, which means of every 25 frames of video, 4 or 5 frames are taken by the lens assembly, the other frames in between these are filled in by the camcorder inner circuitry, thus giving you not true video. This happens in every video they take. I will not mention any thing, other than to say, getting a HD camcorder, make sure you have the computer that handle HD video, one clue, You need a multi core processor and both an audio and sound card also. Any thing less and you will have problems with the footage a HD camcorder makes. And Windows Maker does not work with HD video. Try amazon or ebay to have your HD camcorder.
