The Edit episode covers everything you need to know to get an engaging edit down.
Part 1 covers software tips (There is even some free software out there that works well), what story elements to bring in and tips on switching up camera angles.
Part 2 is based on a recent edit called "Special Delivery" - and gives a complete editing breakdown / behind the scenes look at the movie.
if you are into progressing your video skills will find some gold in here.

its great to hear crew are getting value out of the Reflex film school page
regarding camcorders:
content is king
even shooting in standard definition will give good results - most people will end up editing and posting a 640 x 360 pixel movie of their work.
It is far better to have the camera you can afford now and be getting content / learning how to shoot than to wait for the amazing camera that you cant quite afford yet.
My sony HC3 was the top end consumer camera when i bought it back in 07 - it was the 2nd wave of hdv cameras that sony made. it cost about 2g back then - and has been a great little work horse. The sony / canon / panasonics in the 1 -2 g price range are all a pretty safe bet.
