Hmm, I was looking into these camcorders and the handheld ones (in the price range I was looking) have sensors that are smaller than the sensor on my S95. That makes me a bit worried. I wanted to have a camera that can take 1 hour+ videos and I just don't know if the S95 or DSLR is going to be able to handle this (especially without getting too hot). I have a Kodak ZX5 that is a camcorder but the quality of the video sucks (I accidentally bought two when I was getting one for my brother and then forgot to send one back).

Sorry, for $120 I expect free shipping. Also, I would be a little worried buying olive oil from a place called "cosmetic solutions."

I had a NEX 5 with 18-50 and sold it. It is an odd shape for carrying around in a small bag (I would like to have zooming capability so the pancake lenses won't do) and doesn't fit in the hand as nicely as a camcorder. I never found myself carrying it around when I had it. I suppose it technically might be as small or smaller than a handheld camcorder. I should probably go to Best Buy and try some out in the hand before buying. @Jacob: As for the Nikon D610, if they don't have the problems of the D600, I may end up getting one...

Looks great, especially the short ribs.

I'll look for it.

Definitely agree.

How do you like the air chilled chicken?

Thanks, I will look into those.

Congrat! I know I would be really unhappy if I couldn't get my favorite (Frantoia).

Well, the camcorder is going to weigh a heck of a lot less than the DSLR. My tendonitis can't handle holding up the DSLR for long periods of time.

I am think of getting a small handheld camcorder but don't know what to look for. I assume a bigger sensor is better for low light and you want a decent mic, optical zoom, and decent battery life. That's about all I know. I have read that midrange ($300-$600) is the sweet spot for someone like me. I'm just going to use it for the usual recording friends, family, etc. I was thinking of something like http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00AW54Z4K/thewire06-20 or http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00AWZFJ22/thewire06-20 or http://www.amazon.com/Sony-HDR-CX380-Definition-Handycam-Camcorder/dp/B00AR95FRM/ref=dp_ob_title_ce or maybe something even cheaper http://www.amazon.com/Sony-HDR-CX220-Definition-Handycam-Camcorder/dp/B00AR95H16/ref=zg_bs_172421_14 but would be happy to hear other suggestions. (I just found those by looking at the top selling camcorders at amazon). Is there a brand that is king of handheld camcorders like Canon is for P&S?

That looks good but where is the bacon?

This! Not happy to have autodraft stick me with Lynch. I cannot believe I showed up at 8:30pm EDT (7:30pm CDT) thinking I had a half an hour before the start of the draft.

^That was also true last year

There is no way I would get in that water!

Oops, missed the post. The steak, arugula, potatoes and whiskey sounds awesome. You should be watching Boardwalk Empire instead of Ghostbusters though.

Starting Season 3 of Boardwalk Empire

I have this on my Kindle but haven't gotten around to it yet. Instead, I am trudging through Dan Brown's Inferno - the first half was incredibly dull, the second half isn't all that much better. I don't even know why I am still reading it.

Injuries suck big time but hope is good and getting answers is even better!

The AD2000 pads are around 110mm and are very thin in the middle (on the outside they are about 15mm) but they are suede (which I guess is still leather).

You can set up a smarter autodraft. http://games.espn.go.com/ffl/content?page=fflruleslivedraft2009

This year I am experimenting with drafting without "studying"... should be interesting.

That *is* what they do to protect themselves (pretend they are a dead/sick).

Wow, that is really impessive Vicki!
