already bough an photo camera, a sony DSC 717 but now i am not sure about the best digital camera to buy. i will need it to shoot some hardcore action 
and i need to get the best quality possible on the original source image. the new cameras record already on the mini DVD and that would save much trouble but, i have a personal camera that uses Digital Video tapes and for me the quality of Digital Video is way more superior than DVD quality but with this kind of video i have the problem of the conversion, compression etc that takes huge amount of hours and i always have dropped frames when capturing the DV to the computer. I have been weeks reading everything about DV and compression, encoding, creating menus, creating effects etc but in some movies i cant avoid dropped frames. my computer is a laptop Pentium 2.4Ghz, 512 DDRAM, Radeon 7200 what should be enough even the video editting is the most abusive aplication out there. i am sure on this board there are many guys that can give me their valuable opinion. what camera should i go with?
thanks in advance
