Decent video camera with HDD storage for $350+/- ? |

| I'm having a baby and I'd like to get a video camera. I only want to spend about $350. I'd like to get a video camera that stores video on an internal HDD. Does anyone have any suggestions? There are too many to choose from! Thanks!
EDIT: removed the HD part |

| I don't think there are any in that price range.
Make sure you have a backup strategy. It is easy to lose those files. |

| That one is standard def. Most of these are flash RAM, not hard drive.
The high def HDD models seem in the $799 up range. |

| In this list high def models like the JVC GZ-HD300 kick in around $525.

I have had this Sony for a couple of years now, and love it. Low light video really sucks, but the convenience of the HDD is great! Unfortunately I paid twice this when I bought it :( I will now go introduce my self properly :wink: |
