Need affordable hard drive camcorder with external mic jack

Oct 22, 2010 2:45AM PDT

I have been having a difficult time finding a relatively affordable ($250 and below) hard drive camcorder that has an external microphone jack. If possible, I would like it to be HD and have a reasonable zoom, but I would be willing to compromise the HD for all of the other components. Does this type of camcorder exist? Thanks in advance!
