What is another word for video camera?
Pronunciation: [vˈɪdɪə͡ʊ kˈamɹə] (IPA) 
A video camera, commonly referred to as a camcorder, is a device used for recording video and audio. However, there are other synonyms for the term that are less commonly used. One such synonym is a videocassette recorder (VCR), which was popular in the 1980s and 1990s but has since been largely replaced by digital recording devices. Another synonym is a digital video camera (DVC), which refers to a camera that records video digitally instead of on analog tapes. A third synonym is a handheld camcorder, which typically refers to a smaller, more portable version of a traditional camcorder. No matter the term used, the purpose of these devices remains the same: capturing and preserving memories on video.
