HD Video Cameras - NOT Aiptek
Oops - meant to post this on the Race forum.
OK, the Aiptek cameras have been done to death here. No question that they really opened up the options on low-priced solid state HD video. I've got two of them, so that's all covered.
I'm interested in hearing from anyone who is using a non-Aiptek HD camera for in-car use. I've seen quite a bit of HD video from the earlier generation of the Canon and the Panasonic that were spectacular - no sign of the rolling shutter problem. These were tape-based cameras, but the later models including the Canon HF10, the Panasonic HDC-SD9, the Sony HDR-SR12 and others are all SD card storage, and it would be good to know how they perform in an in-car application.
BTW, the Canon HF10 can be had for $329, which suggests that the price gap between the Aiptek and these higher end cameras is closing fast!!
