Alright NS, so I have had my hv30 now for almost two years. I am tired of capturing tapes and glitched footage.
It was just a month ago I got my heads professionally cleaned. I was filming a few days ago on a downrail and it literally took me 3 hours to do a hardway 2 in to a downrail /claim. I was so stoked when I landed it. Go to capture it right when I get home from skiing and it's all skippy basically unusable. FML I have had footage before ruined, but this took me over the edge.
So NS I need a new solid state camera I know I may get the odd problem with solid state, but it is more reliable. I can't edit AVCHD footage with the specs on my computer (1.66ghz dual core with 2gb of ram) so I don't know what cam to get. 600 or less would be great, but throw out what you think would be best. I have a hv30 and gopro right now and I am more of a guy who puts it on a tripod presses record and hikes nowadays because I like to film myself along with my friends. Also the odd tripod shot and follow cam on jumps. I'm planning on shooting just skiing. I don't need many manual controls, the amount of control on the hv30 was just fine.
So NS what do you recommend?
