I would like three choices for a digital camera that saves video in a
standard format:
avi
mov
mpg
.
.
.
I would also like an audio in connection on the camera(so I can use an
external mic).
I want to record a video(up to 15 minutes at least 640X480) on the
camera and transfer it to my computer without having to do the capture
thing. I will then edit the video and export it to the desired format.
Presently I have a fujifilm finepix f601 and the videos are not saved
in standard format. I've tried a digital camcorder, but its a drag
capturing.

.avi and .mov are technically not "formats" - they are merely ways of
presenting different forms of data. As an example, .mov files can be
encoded with a Sorenson Media codec, or a Cinepak codec, even a DivX
codec.

A specific example: DivX files are most typically encoded as .avi, but
sometimes as .mov. Therefore, these suffixes are ambiguous and tell
nothing of the nature of the data.

As for videos not being saved in "standard format" - what video player
are you using? QuickTime usually can handle everything (
