Best Video Camera for parks?

[TowerJoe]

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is the right question to be asking but does anyone have any recommendations on a video camera to buy for my trip to WDW?? I not looking for anything fancy. Something that will give me good quality when I am trying to record Wishes/Fantasmic/Illuminations...etc. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

What's your budget for this purchase? I've found the reviews at www.camcorderinfo.com to be useful. You mentioned taping the fireworks and other nighttime activities. Such lowlight recording is usually difficult for most consumer-level camcorders, so you might have to spend a little more to find something which can give you good quality for that purpose. Good luck!!

While it does depend on your price limit, for quality I would definately try a Mini DV camcorder for the quality.

Also as with any electronics, watch for the brand. I would rather go with a lower end camera with less options and it be a trusted brand than a cheaper high end camera with a no-name brand. In 2 years, you'll be glad.
