This video is shot from my Samsung ES30 camera. Didn't have the steady-cam feature on but I reckon it takes better video than the dedicated video camera and only about $70. Takes brilliant 12.2mega pixel shots and is simple to use.

Hand-held camera in my D7H...

Be wary of cheap SD cards. I have had several corrupt and wipe out valuable once in a life time photos.

For video get ones that are Class 10 or above so they can write data at a speed that keeps up with the camera.

Also if possible have a method of backing the cards up, say onto a portable harddrive, laptop etc.

Yeah that'll be important! Do you know if you can get an adapter, records from micro SD card slot to hard drive?

Here is link to some portable hard drives that have SD and microSD slots so that you can transfer your cards pics on the go...

Beware of cheap ones of these as well! I had one fail on a holiday in Iceland along with an SD card.

On my last holiday I backed up my SD cards to my Samsung GS2 phone using a micro USB to SD card dongle. Got it from Amazon (Startech multimedia card adapter for about £8). My phone has a 32GB internal card so it had plenty of backup storage to hold 2 weeks worth of high res photos (several thousand).

£8 it was meant to say!
