Looking for Camcorder to Shoot Short Films for YouTube.

[cbgordon]

Hi there,

I've been looking around for a new camcorder for a while now, I reside in the UK and I am looking for a camcorder that I can use to shoot short films for YouTube with.

My budget is approximately £200 - £350, I have been pondering over buying the Sanyo Xacti HD1000 for a very long time now, which costs around £350, I'm still pretty sure I want it, but I still want to see if I can get anything a little cheaper.

I would like the following features:
-HD Video
-Uses SDHC cards
-Fairly Compact
-Mic/Audio out
-Nice sized screen

Thanks.
