Hard drive and mini DVD camcorders have basically the same features like scene settings that help you record better videos. Generally they also incorporate a digital still camera. Mini DV camcorders will have the fewest features; however, they are the least expensive of all the types. Mini DVD camcorders are the mid-price ranged variety but buying disks all the time adds to cost quickly. And finally, the hard drive type is typically the most expensive to begin with but, in the long term, will be the least expensive if you use it regularly.
