Flash suck unless you have a P2 camera

 

[konowaluk]

then is it hard to use the minidv and edit it??

 

[Brian Boston]

You have to capture the footage, but other than that editing is the same

I take that back. Editing the footage from a camera that records to flash chips could be an inconvience depending on the codec the footage is encoded with and your editing software. Mini DV avi's work in ANY editing program, it is the standard. All of the new flash based cameras compress with some kind of HD encoder which may not be supported by your editing program
