Cameras / recorders
Depending on the needs or objectives is to discuss different solutions, so I'll divide this into separate sections.
If before then recommend new purchase of a new digital camera, thisIt is excellent video and sound quality and make ever started in video editing very simple, so ideal for the beginner. There are thousands of catering for different types to choose from in the budget.
Second may be an old VCR or camcorder, using the analog outputs as old as the composite or S-video (be sure to check the results before you).
For this type of installation if a capture card / analogue to digital converter needs, this isdiscussed in more detail in this article.
A PC for video editing
E 'can now easily capture movies from your camcorder directly to your PC and edit it.
If so, when you buy a new PC or building a new one then the current specification is seeking more than strong enough, is a typical spec PC these days a P4, 512MB RAM, 80GB HDD, Windows XP, or something.

If your using the old analog camcorder then also need a digitizer, see the section on video editing cards below.

Extra space
Its worth considering with an extra disc devoted to the video, remember that five minutes of DV footage uses space, 1 GB hard drive, so as to maintain a high capacityHard Drive 80GB or 120GB hard drive RPM, at least 7200 would be recommended.
If your PC supports (which do most of the new time) and a Serial ATA (SATA) hard drives offer higher data transfer rate is available up to 150 MB / sec up to 100 or 133 of the IDE drives compared You can also consider a SCSI if you have a PC with a SCSI standard.
