Hello, 1) 16mm is a film movie camera that is the film size inbetween Super8 and 35mm. A sync Bolex 16mm may be similar in price as a MiniDV home video camera, but movie film has a high price tag. There may be places to rent film movie cameras in your city. They can also be found in used camera stores or on ebay. Look for a non-profit organization that supports film-art, because organizations like that rent cameras for very low rates. For example: L.I.F.T. at www.lift.on.ca Or, call universities or colleges in your area for information on organizations or rentals. 2) Digital camcorders record digital video(DV). DV tapes are much more affordable than film. A two hour DV cassette may be $8. Of course, the look of film is different than video. : I just want to know what's the difference between a regular digital camcorder and a 16mm camcorder. : And what is exactly avid ?
