I'd like to buy a digital camera, but I plan on using it for videos a lot, so it would need to have good video. Most cameras say something like "640 x 480 - 30FPS", but that doesn't necessarily mean it will look perfect at that resolution, right? I want to be able to burn these videos to a DVD (or maybe just watch on a PC) and have them looking very good. I would also like a decent amount of optical zoom and support for at night-time. I don't want to spend more than maybe €300, although the cheaper, the better.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Ignacio, that TX1 looks brilliant. I might get it if I can scrape together the money. I have to buy a new PC first. Also, it comes out at the end of this month in America, but I dunno about Europe, and I live in Ireland.

Canon just came out with a 7.1 megapixel camera that actually shoots HD (1280 x 720) video at 30 FPS.
It's called the TX1 and should be hitting stores soon.
Nicest thing about it? No more tapes!
Hope this helps,
Ignacio
