nikon hd video camera
I am going to Yellowstone at the end of July this year, what type of camera do you suggest?
The highest I will go is $400, I have been looking at the Nikon S8000 because it is so compact and has everything and more than I want in a camera. I thought that was what I wanted, unfortunately I went to Best Buy the other day, just to look around, and I found a Canon HD video camera that was pretty cool (The thing that sold me was how far the zoom went because the Nikon can take HD videos too). Should I buy a video camera if I will most likely take more pictures with it than videos?
I’ll also take suggestions on what to do there and how to take the best pictures of it! Thank you guys!
