Fixed-Lens Camcorders for News Gathering and Documentaries

Camcorders are built for practicality and convenience, with everything being fixed in one package: lens, sensor, and recorder. They are ideal for when you need to get shooting immediately without the fuss of all the ancillaries required of most cinema cameras. While they tend to have smaller sensors and one-size-fits-all features, there are specific advantages to camcorders:

• • Camcorder lenses often have huge zoom ranges.
• • Unlimited recording (limited only by your media or battery life).
• • Frequently have the ability to mount long-lasting broadcast-style batteries.
• • Designed specifically for long shooting days and are often more comfortable to handle out in the field.
• • Many camcorders have pro-level audio inputs and the built-in mics tend to be pretty great.
