Comment This camera kind of sucks (Score 2) 61

I'm in a digital video camera frenzy right now, having scoured the net to find the 'perfect' digital video camcorder. When I first saw the Discam at Circuit City I almost went into cardiac arrest. It was so cool! However, from what I gather, the resolution of the video is lower than most miniDV camcorders, and there's no FireWire port. Sure, it has ethernet and a USB connector (I think), but FireWire is really convinient. I won't buy any digital camcorder without a 1394 link. Also, the new high-density mini-discs are like $15 a pop. It has awesome in-camera editing features, but these are almost useless to me since I'd rather edit on my computer. What I want is a high-density mini disc (MD View) drive for my computer. They can store way more data than Zip disks (640 MB), and are much more convinient to lug around. Also the MD View discs would be great as a PDA storage solution. It could be Sony's MicroDrive. But Sony is trying to get the world to use over-priced Memory Sticks at the moment.
