Hi guys:) If size is a prime consideration, the compacts-8mm and VHS-C, weighing in at two to three pounds-might be preferable. If you have big hands, however, using these small machines can be awkward. A five- or six-pound, full-size VHS model may be more comfortable for a large person. If playback convenience is important, the full-sized VHS may be your best bet. You can play the finished tape in a standard VCR without an adapter (as required for the compact VHS-C) and without hooking the camcorder directly to the TV (as required with the 8mm camcorder). Also, the full-sized VHS units can use standard VHS tapes, which are the least expensive.
Regarding brands: In a survey of experts, many recommended RCA's low-end camcorders in general and singled out Sony in the 8mm format and Panasonic in VHS-C. Many mentioned General Electric's CG818, an 8mm machine, and RCA's CC188, in the VHS-C format, as great buys. You can find both for under $500. Fyi :) Have fun :)
