A digital camcorder is an electronic device that allows a user to record video in digital form. The difference between newer digital camcorders and original video camcorders is that the digital ones use a digital signal instead of an analog signal. The main function of a camcorder is to interpret visual information that is seen and turn it into an electronic signal. With the older analog camcorders, the information is transcribed into a magnetic pattern that is transferred onto video tapes. With a digital camcorder, the same process is used, but instead of transcribing the information into a magnetic pattern, the information is processed and interpreted as 1s and 0s.
