Digital pictures don't need developing. I just plug my camera directly into my USB port and download all the images to a new folder each time, then with a click I can delete all the images on the camera's memory card, and it's ready to take a pile more pics. I open up me image editor (currently using Paint Shop Pro 7, sa-weet) and I do my editing of each pic for the net, and whamo, they're online lickety-split
Here's some recent pics I took for a local business man last week.... <a href="http://members.home.net/winnipegpages/brev_safi.html" target="_blank"><font color="#FFFFCC">Click Here</font></a>.... I had these up on the net in less than two hours after taking them.
I'm not sure about the video portion of your question, but hopefully the camcorder you buy will come with some editing software that will allow you to process and transfer to vhs. I believe that some camcorders (if not all) come with those small cartriges that you actually do the "filming" on (digital uses no actual film), and you can buy a special vhs tape that allows you to plug the small cartridge into it, then you can view your vids via your VCR.
Good luck man!
