Prosumer High-Speed Camcorders

Merkwürdigliebe · 05-12-2008, 10:54 AM

I'm looking into getting one. I found a way of managing to get my current camcorder (a PV-GS65) to do 60fps deinterlaced at 640x240 (this is not actually done at the hardware level, but with software once the video's been captured onto my computer)

Anyway, I'm not finding this to be that effective, the resolution sucks balls and I'm not sure if I'm seeing any much difference at all when I try to slow the video down.

So.. do any of you know of prosumer-level camcorders that have a high-speed mode that shoots @ 200-300fps? I've heard of them being available, I'm just not sure what the market looks like at the moment.

I'm definitley looking for something below $1000 though, which seems a little iffy, I guess, but the cheaper the better.
