These days, there is all but the dilemma of choosing the right recording format for anyone contemplating a camcorder. Compounding to the difficulty of having to choose DV tape, DVD or Hard disk recording media is that each media offers its own set of advantages that appear more compelling than the others when considered. At the end of the day however, it just boils down to a decision of either going for picture quality or storage capacity. Ideally, it would be great to stuff a camcorder with the ability to record onto all three media, but realistically, it would be easier and cheaper to just come to a compromise.
