My non-technical sister and brother-in-law wants one. Doubt she'll do much, if any editing. It's just not in her to spend the time learning how. She asked about the kind that have a built-in DVD recorder. Maybe for her, that's best?
I let her know that HD camcorders have come way down in price since she last used a camcorder. They don't have an HDTV however, and might not want to pay more today for the future benefit of a better picture later.
I'm also curious about what appears to be the new low-end: camcorders with SD cards, is that right?
They recently bought a new PC, so I guess they're running some flavor of Vista.
