Im going to buy a new digi camera here in the next week or so
Heres what i want.
A solid piece that is reliable and can take awesome clear pictures. As well as something that takes awesome video. I need something with all the usual features and any extras wouldnt hurt either. NIGHT VISABILITY is a must as well as i do a lot of night videos racing wise and other things![Nod](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_nod.gif)
Price limit is anything $800 and under!
If you can post your camera and a pic or video to show how good it actually is!
Thanks guys its greatly appreciated, last camera i bought sucked.

I don't know a lot about video camera's, or small digi-cams that take video. The Nikon D90 and some newer Canon's offer video on their DSLR still camera's, but they are out of your price range.
I have a stinky (in comparison) little Nikon Coolpix L5 (older camera) that I carry just to record video. It's not horrible and was dirt cheap. Here's a few vids from it:
Make sure to click "Watch in High Quality" under the video.

He wants video though, not a DSLR.
The closest thing in that price range, taking great photos & HD video is the Nikon D90. It's still above his $800 price limit, though.

for video i would strongly suggest the Cannon HV30 or HV20 it is AWESOME for the price range. films HD and does it in a format that is VERY easy to edit and doesn't demand a HUGE processor to do it either. if you're looking for a place to buy stuff i would recommend looking into a site that can be found if you type in the letter "b" and then "h" and maybe "photovideo" in google...
