Is yours a miniDV camera? Because that is technically a digital camera, and basically the new format all cameras are going to be in.

I guess it is..but I dont want it most for video, just want short videos, that i can take off on my computer..It is digital but uses a very small tape, But theres no flash for the pictures and some come out good and some dont..Im in a quandry.. I like it, but want good pictures too...THeres so much to read, its hard to catch it all, theres so much to it..but its the tape part im not crazy about..I dont watch tv so I dont have one..I can hook my vcr up to my computer , but I dont know how to get the sound along with the video yet..oh wow. .any way , like i say 80 min of video is good for me..as long as i can get good pictures..

You sound like I was when I was trying to decide on a camcorder or a camera. In the end I went for a camera that had the options I really wanted (10x optical zoom and with a 1 mb card I can get up to an hour of video). Mine is a Canon Powershot S1 Is. Of course this is last years model but I got it on sale for around $350 not including the 1mb card.

I hope you can find something with the features you want in your price range!
I'll be looking forward to seeing more of those cutie pies!
