DV camcorders make the ideal gift for the man in your life. What are they? Do you remember the old heavyweight video cameras that you could hardly lift, let alone take decent video films? Well, they are nothing like that. They have gone mini!!

DV camcorders are lightweight, fit in your pocket,don’t need video tape and have automatic focus and face recognition. The advancement of digital and photography equipment has made huge improvements to these must-have items. Oh, and they are a fraction of the price of old cameras.

There is also a huge range of DV camcorders equipment and accessories to choose from. All the major electronics and photographic manufacturers are in on the act, producing a bewildering array of products to choose from.

So how do you choose? Firstly, I would stick with the big household elctronics and photo names. Panasonic, Sony, JVC to name but a few. Then I would settle on a budget. How much would you spend on DV camcorders? Obviously, the more you spend, the more you get for your money. You don’t however have to pay top dollar for DVcamcorders nowadays. Some of the mid-price range cameras are ideal for everyday and occasional use.

Secondly, I would check out the facilities that come with specific DV camcorders . A lot of features are common to all, but the telephoto capability needs a bit of exploration. Some DV camcorders zoom is purely digital. At high magnification some pictures will show the picture pixels which is not what you want to see. Good quality DV camcorders with part optical zoom and part digital zoom will perform much better on close -ups.

Whatever you use the DV camcorders for, don’t forget to buy a good video editing program so that you can edit the videos you take and turn them into cinematic masterpieces with a little effort at home.
