Camcorder
Handycam

Above of the two are absolutely similar, they capture images and
then record them digitally on a tape. The only difference between the two is that some companies refer to their product as either a
handycam or a camcorder(Camera+recorder).
Both have either a CCD or CMOS sensor to capture images.

Nowadays even high end movies are being captured digitally much to the disdain of film enthusiasts.

Just like the above can be used to make videos, a DigiCam is essentially only use to capture single frames, a photograph.
But these days even Digicams can capture video.

So you see Digital Photography Rocks.

2) handicam: Usually refers to sony brand, but has been generically used to refer to smaller sized camcorders.
3) Digicam: Records an image digitally & is usually a "still" camera
