Typical price: £210
What is it: A hardy rock of a camcorder for casual party or holiday use
What we think: MiniDV camcorders are still in the game. This is an extremely capable camcorder that captures well in brightly lit environments and doesn't stumble too hard when dusk falls. At this price there's not much to complain about
