also the resolution sucks 690000 pixels on the CCD vrs 5m... big difference

also the color space is different between the a digital stills camera and a video camera (video cameras will capture less color information especially with NTSC)

that about sums it up
very nice man, thanks!

so your saying even if i managed to find a 5megapix camcorder, stills would still come out grainy due to the fact that each frame is interlaced. correct?

Is this on every camcorder? Or did i manage to choose a $700 shitty one, lol

Anything you can recomend in same price range?
