Hello -

I'm new to this forum and was looking for advice on a camcorder that I could use to start shooting my daughters soccer's games with out breaking the bank or putting me in the dog house by my wife.

My daughter is a goalie so most of the shots would be from side in-line with her. I'm looking at this for making a highlight reel for high school and college but at the same time we want to be able to go back and look at what she may need to either improve on or what was done right. Things happen so fast on the soccer fields we miss what either happened good or bad. Also most of the shooting would be done from stands or as close as I can get since she now plays on football size fields.

My budget would be around $350 - $400 give or take. If I could even come in under that it would be great.

Thank you in advance,
Dave
