High-definition camcorders record to MiniDV tapes and deliver 1080i resolution for sharp, clear video that looks great on your 1080i-capable HDTV. To edit high-definition video, make sure your computer has a fast processor and plenty of memory that meets, or exceeds, the minimum recommendations for your video-editing software. If your camcorder does not come with bundled video-editing software, look for packages that support high-definition video editing like Final Cut Pro HD or Pinnacle Studio.
