What do you guy's have and what do you recommend?
Currently I'm looking at the Canon ZR-10 and the Sony TRV6? Any thoughts on how good they are. I'm looking in the price range of $800 to $1000 USD.

Oh and for some Audi content....once I buy this video camera I will take lots of stills of my car and my new wheels for you.

Thanks very much :- )

Default If you can find a Sony PC100 get that...Megapixel still shots and Carl Zeiss lens...(m)

There are a few others out there that do megapixel on stills, but they are newer and more expensive (Sony PC110, etc.). The Carl Zeiss lens is a big bonus, as it is basically the best available...good quality zoom, crisp image, etc. (Digital zoom sucks on ALL the cameras).

I believe the PC100 is discontinued now, so you can find it relatively cheap...a few others with similar capabilities sell for far more (at Xmas, the PC100 was around $1600...I think some places have it around $1200 or less, use mysimon.com or dealtime.com).

It's also a nice small camera, with lots of digital effects and super image quality...when it was out is was rated as one of the top cameras out there.

Let us know what you wind up getting...and show us some good shots of your ride!
