Which Camcorder?

[gavinhanly]

I promised to my sister than I'd do some research into which camcorder to buy, and here seemed like the obvious place...

They're looking for a decent digital camera £500-£600 that is fairly simple to use, but highly rated. Is that enough info? Any suggestions?

The Panasonic range seem to be the nicest looking and most compact. Have a look at www.kelkoo.co.uk for some of the best prices.

I spent over £1000 on 2 Panasonic Camcorders..and both went belly up after about 14 months,

So Sony will be getting my money next time

Can anyone comment on any particular recent models from experience - or alternatively let me know of a good review site? Ta.
