I do have a digital camera, but it’s on its way out. I doubt that I’ll keep it for another 12 months. So I’m considering replacing it now. But I’m also interested in the Kodak Camcorder. But I will not be uploading anything to be viewed online. All for personal usage.

Would you buy a camcorder without image stabilization?

Question by scratch08: Would you buy a camcorder without image stabilization?
I would like to but a DGX pocket size camcorder. They have good reviews but suggest you use a tri pod. How bad is the video without stabilization.

Don’t buy a camcorder without the image stabilizer. Video quality will be terrible.Don’t waste your money.
