Alright I'm currently taking a Video Art class. Why I don't know but now I need a cheap good camera so... Which of these should I buy?

JVC - MiniDV Digital Camcorder - GRD770US
- Very expensive but if it's better than below than fine but please look at the stuff below and tell me whats good.

Aiptek MPVR+ Digital Camcorder with Flash Drive and Digital Camera Tripod

Aiptek - Digital Camcorder with Flash Drive - MPVR+

DXG - 5.0MP Digital Camcorder with Flash Memory - Black - DXG-506VK

DXG - 5.1MP Digital Camcorder with Flash Memory and 1.7" Color LCD Monitor - 506V

Jam it back in, in the dark.

As a camcorder, I'd get the Alptek MPVR. The 30fps capturing in SuperVHS mode is what you will need. Odds are high that the other models you linked can only record 10-15 fps, and that stuff looks choppy. Also, make sure you buy a 2GB flash card of some kind.

And BTW, as cameras, these suckers are pretty nice for simple photography. So its not that bad a deal.

MiniDV is an actual legitimate video format. The rest of those are not, probably compressed with some intra-frame codec that will be hard to edit. I'd stick with the JVC.

How ya doing, buddy?
