Camcorder or Camera
« on: November 16, 2011, 10:16:49 am »

I'm getting a puppy and want to start taking video of her! I'm just up in the air about what I should buy. Keep in mind I mostly just like to take stills, but a little video would be fun as well! Below are the options I was thinking:

1. EOS 5D MK II
2. Canon Vixia and wait for the MK III to come out or get a less expensive MK II because the MK III is out.
3. Kodak Playsport and wait for the MK III to come out or get a less expensive MK II because the MK III is out.
4. Canon Vixia or Playsport and just use the EOS 30D that I already own.

Thanks for the help and advice.

The best camera is the one you have with you. Annie Leibovitz recommends the iPhone as a camera.

I wish I had an iPhone! Do you think one of those pocket camcorders would be good?
