Resolved Question

Can someone reccommend a Great Camcorder that would fit this

Dec 6, 2011 3:34AM PST

I am a high School baseball/Softball coach. I love to break down swings in slow motion and have been told I need at least 60 FPS. I also need a camera that could serve as a regular camcorder for normal speed recording. Is there a camera/camcorder on the market that can accomplish both of these needs and be able to transfer the video straight to a DVD burner. The industry is mind boggling to the Average Joe.Thanks in advance for your help..

So far all the cameras and camcorders I know of has me putting the video into some app to turn the content into a Video DVD.

DVD = Digital Versatile Disc and does not mean it plays on video DVD players.

With that out of the way we could put the video file onto a DATA DVD and play it with VLC PLAYER on most machines.

IN FACT VLC PLAYER may be better than a video DVD player for some of us.
