please help! i want to get the canon hg 10 but i need to know about something!?
so i have a dell. it runs on microsoft. i was not planning on getting an expensive editing program. i can't afford sony vegas or anything else that costs money. are there any free down-loadable editing programs that will convert to hd mode on the computer for like.. youtube and stuff?
i am not professional at all. this will be the first camcorder i get. and all i want is to make some really nice high quality videos for school, and fun projects (short films/music videos..etc)
please help! what should i do?

The Canon HG10 camcorder is bundled with a powerful software suite from Corel. WinDVD SE lets you play back your recorded video on your computer. You can also easily perform AVCHD Editing in which you can trim, reorder, and combine scenes, as well as add music, titles, and transitions. With the Corel Application Disc, you can use DVD Moviewriter SE when finished to burn your edited video onto either a full size AVCHD DVD or Standard Definition DVD.
*The bundled application is compatible with Windows XP and Windows Vista.

Corel isn’t so expensive http://www.corel.com/servlet/Satellite/us/en/Product/1173965700889#versionTabview=tab1&tabview=tab0
