Folks,
Sorry about these same repetitive question but in all the research I do, I can't find what I'm looking for. As a casual home/family/vacation user, I would like a digital camcorder that is around $500. I would like ones with the best low light capabilities as I assume my family is indoors some of the time. Many recommended camcorders (HC40, TRS 22,33 Elura 65, etc.) frequently have serious flaws along with the positive reviews.
Your ideas and sugegstions are appreciated. Thanks
