Many thanks to jon and paul for your help...
  Have decided on a sony - HC40 (this seems to have all the requirements - so now time to part with my money...gulp!!! 
 I will also be going for a bullet cam...
 I see 2 names that come up: 
 Highview and rfconcepts - is there any difference between the two??? 
 Also do I need a LANC remote - or would the remote from the Camcorder suffice? 
 Regards - Les
