Hey everybody!

I've got a new vidcast, 50 Pounds, 6 Months (Pickle Page), about my mission to lose weight, but I'm less than satisfied with the crappy webcam that I'm currently using to record the show. It has such poor low-light performance that I have to use tons of light just to make anything visible, and that totally washes me out and looks odd.

I'd prefer to have better image quality, (and also to not have to start slathering up with stage makeup), so I'm looking at potentially getting a digital camcorder.

Only problem, I don't really know anything about them beyond the basics. Anyone have a suggestion for things I should look for in a camcorder? Must have features?

Also, if anyone has any other suggestions for how to improve my show, that is welcome as well. Thanks!
