	Digital Video (DV) Frequently Asked Questions (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Because MiniDV is considered the "prosumer" or "semi-professional" format, extremely high-quality cameras are made for it, such as the Canon XL1, Sony VX-1000 and Sony TRV-900.
		MiniDV tapes, being produced for an elite audience, normally are found only in large video superstores such as Good Guys, Frys and Circuit City.
		MiniDV cameras are often lacking in audio features, even though the format itself is loaded with them.
