    this would be a suggestion for a digital camera forum as i don't think it would fall into any other catagory. almost everyone owns one , so i doubt there would be a lack of interest.

    so what do you think

    But a DV cam is not really a still photo camera. And a digital camera is not really a computer.

    I'm a strong "No" - there are plenty of other sites that ably cover this, and it's not video related in my opinion.

    DV cams: www.camcorderinfo.com

    Still pics: I can't recall specific URL, but they're out there.
    There is some corner of a foreign field that is forever England: Telstra Stadium, Sydney, 22/11/2003.

    Carpe diem.

    well, ladies ( :P ) I wouldn't go with "digital cameras" section, but since basically all digital cameras are able to take some sort of videos, thus i wouldn't shun tender's suggestion like that.
    After all digital VIDEO is always a digital video, doesn't matter by what device it was made - crappiest .mov snapshooter for $20 or $20K professional handycam, right?
    Not everyone has a need for a perfect quality HDTV footage, many people are happy with those crappy videos shot on their dummy(digital)cameras.
    And lets not forget that all these digital camera forums cover usually only their stills part of functionality.
    SO I say YES, the video part of digital cameras should have been covered here.
    Where else people should look for help in transferring say 12fps .mov 320x240 crapshoots to their DVDs if not on videohelp.com ?

    @ DereX888: You're dead right - This site is the perfect place, and should (and does) help people with their video files shot on digital stills cameras.

    But that doesn't mean the site should be extended to a forum for the cameras themselves, as originally suggested. Following that logic, we'd need a forum for all other equipment that shoots video (VHS, Betamax, SVHS, DV and HDV cams), as well as a forum for all TV's in terms of equipment (normal, HDTV, plasma, LCD etc.) - whereas, at present, the site deals with what's been shot, not what it's been shot on or viewed on.

    Where would it end? A line has to be drawn somewhere - and I think it's spot on the way it is currently. JMHO

    Youre right.
    The general or newbie's section are fine for such questions.

    Ahh Tenders, but don't we have an ongoing thread about digital cameras in the 'off topic' section ?
