People do plenty of dumb things because of addictions. Games can be terribly addicting, provoking poor choices from the addicted. You might be right. But consider what a junkie will do to get a fix. That person is only a few bad decisions away from us seemingly well-adjusted people.
This is disingenuous. The kid might be predisposed to reacting inappropriately, sure, but when you add external pressures it certainly uncovers behavior that might not normally surface without that motivating force. If that makes sense?
You want to use a PVDV953, or a Canon Optura Xi.
The Panasonic PVDV953 is 3 chip, has great colour, and whatever anyone else says, the low light ratings are good enough. If you are getting into film making you are going to use lighting anyways.
The Canon Optura Xi has an awesome picture for a single chip camcorder. But it all boils down to the features you like. If you can find a good store who will let you buy both, and return one then run some tests. Plug them both into your tv and check the quality.
I think if you can afford to shell out a few more dollars, you should seriously look into the Panasonic AG-DVX100P. It has a 24 frame mode that has indie filmmakers buzzing. It is a great camcorder.
