Video Camera

[BigBear]

Need Help:

Need suggestions for a light weight, mobile, HD video camera. Something that takes good video and is easy to transfer to computer for upload.

Needed to record concerts, etc. Would love certain features like zoom, USB connection, auto playback, etc..

Thoughts? I've done some research but would like to get your opinions.

Price plays a big role, I do not have a school budget for this so it'll probably come out of my own pocket... the life of teachers.

I picked up a few of these sony's for the office.

They have some w/ a built in HD but I kind of like the flash memory. It has a built in USB to connect it to the comp, just gotta plug it in.

Not a fan of the Sony PMB software though..
