I want to buy one that's light weight, dvd video quality, and preferably that has a removable media type. (eg, dvd etc)Pls also tell me why.

i use my stil camera to take video. the quality is good and with a 2mb card i can get about an hour of video time, also it is alot smaller and easier than lugging around a big a** camcorder.
