Digital Camcorders Research
There are NO Camcorders without camera mode?? Why?
Okay, I’d like to purchase a new camcorder for my trip to SE Asia in April, I’ve been doing researches on the internet and I couldn’t find any camcorder that doesn’t have the picture taking function. What the hell is going on in the manufacturers’ minds? Why don’t they make camcorders only camcorders?? Camcorders are for taking VIDEOS, not pictures! I know that many people don’t have digital cameras so the picture mode is convenient but it DOES NOT provide good picture quality so why make them?? or at least make few camcorders that only for taking VIDEOS. I don’t remember the last time I used the picture mode on my old camcorders.
Thanks for the answer and happy New Year to everyone!
Its down to supply and demand, people want to be able to take stills with their camcorders, and the makers know this and add it to the models.
I Agree with you, but obviously we are not the majority, and just ignore the function. It also depends on your budget, once you get into commercial cameras then they have no use for the function, and omitt it. I could be wrong abd there maybe a consumer camcorder without a stills camera, but as there are a million and one models I honestly dont know
