Do memory cards make the difference?
Alright, well, I’m about to make myself sound extremely stupid here … but, hey – I’m used to it. & we all sound stupid when we don’t understand something, eh? ;]
Anywho, I’ve recently begun to make videos on YouTube using this video camera I got for Easter as an extremely late birthday gift from my step dad (long story. lol.). So yeah … The quality looks fine on the camera – pretty nice actually. But, when I go to play it back sometimes or mostly when I upload the clips, the quality just isn’t as crystal clear. &, really, I suppose this is to-be-expected, since the camera he got me isn’t exactly the greatest one on the market as far as expenses go. &, honestly, that’s fine with me. I mean, I’ve wanted one for so long. Why complain now when I finally have one? (I’m trying to be more fortunate these days & less of the total spoiled child I’ve always been in the past, all due to my consideration of the economy & my deep need of cash for college ;])
Anywho, some people are telling me that HQ memory cards would make the viewing quality a bit better when I go to play the clips back on my computer. I’m not so sure this is true or whatever, so I’m basically just asking if it is. Also, if it makes any such difference at all, do you know any memory cards which may be best? (The one I have atm is pretty cheap. q:)
But, like I said … I’m trying to be more grateful. So, really, it’s all more out of curiosity than anything else. q:
i’m assuming it’s the lighting … now that i think about it. oh well.

Look at this website, I have never heard of HQ memory cards so I googled and I found this interesting site. http://www.digitalcamera-hq.com/digital-cameras/digital-camera-memory-cards_roundup.html
Also low light will make you video somewhat grainy looking, so try to shoot in the best light available.
If your camcorder uses sd cards, then look into the class 6 sd cards. You can also use sdhc (secure digital High capacity) over 2G.
