Shoud I get this camera, or this camera? (Video camera)?

Should I get this one:
Aiptek Action HD 1080p Digital Camcorder

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9208238&povid=cat3991-env7649-module158410-rLink2

Or this one:
Canon ZR900 Silver MiniDV Digital Camcorder Kit includes a Soft Carrying Case and 60 min. MiniDV Tape

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10059009&povid=cat3991-env7649-module158410-rLink5

I don't know the difference.The first one is HD and very inexpensive, and the other is inexpensive, about the same price, and a camcorder.

    If you want to capture video of what stuff looks like when you throw the camcorder and don’t care if it breaks, then get the Aiptek.

    If you want a real camcorder that you want to use a for a few years, get the Canon ZR900. Note: as a miniDV tape based camcorder, you will transfer video using firewire. Connect a firewire cable to the DV port of the camcorder and the firewire port of your computer. If your computer does not have a firewire port, hopefully your computer has an available expansion slot so you can add one. Firewire 400, IEEE1394a, DV and i.LINK are all the same thing. USB will not work – USB-firewire adapter/converters will not work. The ZR900 also has a mic jack that many camcorders do not have (including the AipTek).

    Your computer is built for the second camera, the Canon, and includes free video editing software for it . The first camera, the Aiptek, is actually a good camera that records in a format similar to professional camcorders, but if you do not need the HD quality, the Canon is a good deal.

    If in doubt, get the Canon. Based on your choices, you will be recording general home video type movies. in that case, the Canon is a better system overall even without the HD quality.

    The Cannon is the best choice, or you can check this one out: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9914700
