Personally I think the digital camera with separate sound recording appears to deliver the best results &#8211; although the video on the webcam is higher res running at 25 frames per second rather than 15 fps on the Canon. From my own perspective, I find the better sound makes a bigger impact than having better video (although I suppose I could have done a synchronised recording on the webcam too). I&#8217;ll be interested in what other people say.  The obvious missing category of video is video shot using a proper video camera, but unfortunately I don&#8217;t have one!
