If I just wanted to shoot video -- the GoPro TYPE cameras work great - EXCEPT there's no zoom... they're a one trick pony.

I am going to try and get out this weekend to see what's out there. Something simply that has decent zoom, battery life, low light shooting, and quality would be nice.

My Nikon D7100 has a record button on top that when pressed, immediately goes into video recording mode. The movie length is only limited to your memory card sizes (it has dual memory card slots).
