That's easily overcome on any computer capable of video editing by using a feature of directly copying to DVD without any editing. Then you can make multiple compies.
I have a panasonic 3 CCD camcorder. I've been quite happy with it. Sony and canon are pretty reliable as well. I'd tend to stay away from the others.

I have a JVC mini-DV (tapes) that I paid something on the order of $250 for and it works great and is small. Additionally, I can dump the movies to my mac and edit them in the free iMovie application and it produces great results. See, e.g.
