Record Direct to DVD
The DC310 digital camcorder lets you record directly to DVDs, and lets you shoot and share video through a variety of options. Only 3" (8cm) in diameter, the DC310’s DVD-R/-RW discs are compatible with most DVD players and can store up to 30 minutes of video in standard mode and 60 minutes of video in long play mode. They also record to DVD-R DL (dual layer) discs that can store up to 108 minutes of video.
I’m not buying this though, I already have DVI(Tape cassettes) Canon camcorder. Movies might not be the same quality, but the tapes are cheap, easy to use and there’s negligible wait time to sync the recording media to the camcorder before recording, unlike changing DVD’s.
According to a review on amazon.com you have to have this camcorder plugged into an ac outlet to burn the dvds so if you need to burn the disc, make sure you have an outlet near you.
I think I would want a camcorder that allows more freedom than that.
Don’t ever trust www.BroadwayPhoto.com that don’t deliver and the customer service really sucks. Nothing ever gets done even when you contact for correction. Bad experience with these guys in california. Real poor service.
as someone who owns a 3" dvd camcorder I would skip it. I learned after the fact that dvd camcorders cant write fast enough to record quality video so you give up quality picture for convience of using a dvd player to watch movies. its neat but not very sharp pictures.
