Response from
Modern cameras - digital cameras - are capable of shooting video as well. The easiest solution is to record in MJPEG format. It takes about a gigabyte of memory for 20 minutes of 640x480 at 30 fps. If you want, I'll email you a clip made this way. To increase the possible duration of the shooting, or increase the capacity of the memory card, or provide for compression of the video during shooting the latter approach also helps solve the problem of the speed of recording on the memory card. MPEG-4 is just one of the options for such compression It does not affect the quality of photo shooting. Video shooting for the camera is a side function. But it looks like in the foreseeable future it will get so much better that it could squeeze out conventional camcorders?

there's a big difference
With support they record video, but without it they don't
With or without the support to take pictures and the camera has to take pictures not video.
in price
Smoke is right! Price!
There is no difference for a photo. It's all digital soap.
Superfluous features.
Mp4 mne asociiruetsa s mp3 playerom, v katorom mozhno smotret i video. Fotoaparati obi4no dla video ispolzuet drugie formati, naprimer AVI. Dumaiu, 4to dla fotoaparataa Mp4, vovse nenuzhen navorot.
