Can someone give me some advice on what camera to buy. I don't know anything about video camera's. I have a Canon A70 digital camera. We raise mini horses for show and to pull carts. I want something that I can take video's of the horses that we will be selling, to show how they move and look etc. and to take to the shows and record how we show. Can look at the videos later and see what we need to improve apon etc. And for training to watch what we are doing. Thanks
 
Fuji S602Z has one of the best video capture modes of any digital camera,
e.g. 640x480 at 30fps for as long as memory device allows, approx 20 min
with 1gig microdrive or fast (NOTE FAST) compact flash card.

I have a short take my kid took of me hitting a 9' on a par 3. In each frame
the club and shaft are clearly discernable and there's aprox 1/2 dozen
frames where you can clearly see the round (not stretched out) golf ball
progressively moving away from the club. My 8mm camcorder doesnn't "stop the
motion" anywhere near as well, noticeably "streakier"..

I'm sure to the educated eye, shots taken of a horse jumping etc. would
clearly show the muscle actions etc. from frame to frame (in fact might have
to skip frames or perhaps back off camera capture to 15 fps).

Oh, that should have read "9 iron" not "9'" (e.g. full swing hit & not a
putt), might make a diff. in your interpretation of what I was saying about
clarity at 30fps.
