depends on what you mean by camera, are talking compact camera, brigde camera or dslr camera. plus what sort of camcorder. as their are various different type of camcorder. then their the question are you just going to take video or are going to take video and photographys if both then camera would be useful in the sense that it does both where the camcorder only shoots video.

I'm thinking of comparing a digital compact camera HD video v's a camcorder only for taking HD videos (not photos)

thanks
