I have been searching for a full-sized VHS camcorder for a month. Vendor after vendor has told me that they are no longer manufactured. I love DV, but for many situations, VHS meets our needs better. I, too, would welcome any suggestions for a source of any full-sized VHS camcorder at an affordable price.
