1. Search through this thread for ideas, suggestions, and answers.

Personally, I use Sony Vegas and DVD Architect.

2. Get a decent, inexpensive [under $10] UV or Haze filter (58mm) to screw onto the front of the camera. This will protect the camera's lens. If you scratch or break the "cheap" lens, it's no big deal to replace.

3. I have a couple of Audio Technica 88w wireless sets that work fine for me. The cost for each complete set (transmitter, receiver, lapel mic) is about $100 brand new. Whether it's a good choice for you depends on your application and where you plan to use it. There is limited range (about 30+ feet) and it can be affected by interference.

Good luck...
