Camcorder advice please

Looking to purchase an easy to use camcorder. Mainly to record my daughter on her horse, so ability to cope with fast movement essential. Will want to upload the filming onto a PC and also view on TV. Must be compact. Budget up to £200. Thank you.

Re: Camcorder advice please

You might like to consider the Panasonic SDR S26. It utilises a CCD sensor, and Optical Image Stabiliser (OIS) both of which are important featueres for taking video where rapid movement is likely.It is also compact.
You can find some reviews from the advert banner at the top of this page.

Canon do similar models - the FS100 for example - although that doesn't have an optical image stabiliser.
Generally speaking, optical image stabilisers (OIS) are much more useful than electronic image stabilisers (EIS).

Re: Camcorder advice please

I recommend the JVC GZ-MG430 , I have had the Pansonic s26 and the JVC has a much better picture and vibrant colours and a 30gb hdd or microSD for around £200.
