Thank you... I am still researching potential camcorders, since a member on NN has suggested it... I had ordered two through Amazon that were under $100, but returned them... and surprised to have a refund with out Amazon inspecting them. Never was able to test them... And I am seeking a cam with traditional handheld remote, not a cell app remote, but that`s what so, many are. Thus far most research has directed me to E Bay... I am hesitant to try a cam via Amazon, again. My other research about camcorders is about editing them and if, I upload them. I am a intermediate PC user and do have a win 7 that`s not connected to the internet. So, whatever the software is, it might be more stable to use. At the moment, I am not concerned about creating a DVD.
