Things to keep in mind before buying a Camcorder
In this section, we’ll talk about some of the important things that one has to keep in mind before buying a camcorder. This section includes the technical aspects and also gives you an overview of different types that are available in the market. So, read the below points carefully so that you have proper clarity about the product that you are buying.
Type
There are different types of camcorders available in the market. Each provides you the unique style and quality of the recording. The size can vary from small as your palm to big as a small mini tv. There is a notion that the bigger the camera, the more advanced features it will have, which is not right. If you are not a professional user, you should always go with a handy camcorder which gives you more freedom, and you can easily carry it from one place to another.
If you are thinking of shooting in different light conditions, then make sure that it has proper night vision (it also depends on the lens). There are also a series of pocket and wearable camcorders that gives you more freedom in terms of use, and you can shoot while doing skating or riding a bike.
Resolution
More the resolution, the better the picture quality, you’ll get. It could be a 720P, 1080P, or a 4k camera. Nowadays, most the camcorders have 4k resolution which gives you the crystal clear quality on the bigger screen.
Aperture
Aperture helps you deciding how much light you wanna let in. The bigger the aperture (low f stop number), the more light will come. Which ultimately helps you in shooting in the low light condition. It will also impact the depth of the photo. By changing this, you can create a good bokeh mode.
Zoom & Stabilization
Zoom could be a real game-changer when you are doing long-distance photography like wildlife, or anything else. When you are shooting in the wild, you don’t want to disturb your subject by moving close to it. That’s where you can use the zoom and capture some natural moments. Also, one important thing that when you are using the zoom, your image stabilization will distort.
Nowadays, you get camcorder comes with electronic stabilization which provides better stability and you get very less jitter in your footage. There are also camcorders which come with mechanical stabilization. It could be from one axis to five-axis.
Bit Rate
If the camera has a higher bit rate, it will have higher video quality. Bit rate is not a very important factor, but you can look at this part when buying the camera. Though it also has the downside as well. Higher bit rate camera will fill up the memory card pretty fast.
