Digital??...Camcorder???
Never heard of it! Does it take regular super-8 cartridges or is it maybe Single-8?
What will they think of next!
$500-600 is a tough range. Make sure that the camera has an external mic input because the sound you get from the onboard camera mics is not good. Also, you should look for manual exposure. The only camera I ccan think of in your price range is a Canon ZR series camera. If you could find a Sony TRV17 used it would be a good alternative.
Your other choice get a Super-8 camera and shoot film.
