Can someone please tell me the difference between a Mini DVD camcorder and a MiniDV camcorder? I am looking for a small camcorder to videotape dog agility runs (the ones were the dog runs an obstacle course) so it needs to be small, simple to operate, have a decent zoom and be able to tape both indoors and outdoors (sunny or cloudy). In addition to being able to watch the playback immediately, I want to be able to plug the camera into either my TV or computer to watch later. Any suggestons? Looking at ads is only making things worse and most of the clerks at chain stores talk way too technical for me (in addition to being way too young to carry on a conversation with a little older customer).
