Personally, I'd wait until you've had the camcorder awhile before looking seriously at accessories, there are many, many different combinations you may need and it can get expensive very fast.
Michael, thanks for your help and advice. Your Optura FAQ is terrific! Wow! OK, I will wait to accessorize :-))

What do I want to do? Well, I previously wrote, edited, directed and produced in conjuction with the City's cable station. My last show was an experimental video about origami (paperfolding) which is my specialty. It was a two-year production and involved over 100 international artists.

Now, I want to experiment with shorter, fun origami video vignettes. So my budget is modest. My big challenge is learning how to shoot and digitally edit. But the joy of having full creative control over my own productions is intoxicating!! :-))
