I'm looking for a camcorder for, among other things, video-ing my practice sessions and then watching the playback to see why my errant shots are errant.
Among the many things I can't figure out is how you can tell if a given camcorder is compatible with slow motion playback in the hope that if the playback is slow enough I can actually figure out what's going on. I've seed ads that say they can playback 3 seconds of video over 12, which seems like a fine idea. My problem is I can't figure out how to tell whether that's an example or a limit? My full shot, from the beginning to my draw to conclusion usually takes more than 3 seconds.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
What about casio ex-f1 for example?
I would check the manufacturers website for information, maybe a users manual or call their tech support number.
You might also look into digital cameras. My point and shoot takes video and I can look at it in slow motion. It also has a jack so I can watch it on my television.
I just ordered a casio ex-fc100 for this. It takes alot of light but should work well. Here is a video taken with it.

Do you have a Mac, by chance? If so, Imovie lets you slow down or speed up clips.
windows movie makers lets you slow it down as well. But, most camcorders let you move forward by frame after the video is paused?
