Digital Camcorders and Video Cameras

What is a Digital Camcorder or Video Camera?

A camcorder (video camera recorder) is an electronic device that combines a video camera and a video recorder into one unit.  All tape-based camcorders use removable media in the form of video cassettes.

Camcorders that do not use magnetic tape are often called "tapeless camcorders" and may use optical discs (removable), solid-state flash memory (removable or built-in) or a hard disk drive (removable or built-in). 

These types of camcorders are usually referred to as digital camcorders. 

Camcorders that permit using more than one type of medium, like built-in hard disk drive and memory card, are often called hybrid camcorders.

Camcorders, or video cameras can be used during surveillance to record events such as the behavior of a subject.  Following are camcorders and video cameras that are available from Amazon.com.
