This is my first time that I am going to buy a camcorder, so I need some advice.

I have 2 requirements:

(1) An easy way to put the recorded videos onto my laptop
(2) To be able to pipe the video to a TV screen (so while I am filming, I want to display the video on a TV screen)

Any suggestions???

Currently, I am lookig at Sony's DVD camcorders: DCR-DVD203E or DCR-DVD403E .... What do u think of them??

Do I need to check that the mini-DVD used for the camcorders can be used in my laptop???

regards
