I'm looking for an inexpensive digital camcorder (the ones that record to a sd card). I got an email from geeks.com on this one (link). Does anybody have experience with these type of camcorders? Quality, etc. Or can recommend a better alternative?

Thanks.
 
I've never heard of VuPoint before, but neither am I an expert on cameras. There's a forum at the bottom called 'Digital Artwerk', and they're more knowledgable than me, but that camera looks incredibly cheap, and I would never buy it.

When I bought my DV camera, it cost around $200, and I went with a Sony. I'd stick with a reputable brand like Panasonic, Sony or Canon.
 
Sanyo's Xacti line. Had a HD1000 (about 12times the price of the linked..) but there are cheaper models.
 
I looked at the Sanyo line, they are nice but expensive. Is there anything in between the cheap stuff and the Sanyo's?
 
Update!

The camera arrived and its a pretty neat item. The quality of the video is impressive, on a 4gb SD card I can record 2hrs 47m at max quality (640x480 30fs high bit rate). The 'broken' battery door was just out of its hinge with careful pressure I got it back in. Needless to say....I'm pleased!

I was surprised how tiny it is..

 
Looks like a nifty little thing... tempted to get one now too :D

Have fun with your new toy! ;)
