Forums > Help! > Buying a digital video camera

Ok, here's the deal, I want to get a video camera, probably new with warranty. Want it to be digital so I can edit on the 'puter at home, and am going to be using it mainly for:
a) recording outdoors at fire meets etc.
b) recording documentary style reports, which will probably involve visiting some archaeological sites, which rarely have the greatest storage areas (i.e a tent)

So I'm thinking, I need something fairly durable, but still want a decent video quality. What do you guys think? I know sfa but I trust you lot more than some dude in a video store to give me a few guidelines.

Oh yeah, and what sort of stuff do I need to edit on a computer?

Cheers dudes
