    "mp4". We are shooting and/or delivering in either 1280x720 or
    1920x1080.</p>

  There are camcorders that enable full-res uploads of their memory cards via WiFi. Thus, if your room has connectivity to your intranet, you can leave the card in the camcorder, hit upload when you are done, turn the camera off when the upload is done, do your customer edits and uploads, then wipe the card for the next day's work, all without walking 200 meters away.
  
  This $330 camera might do all you need: [Canon VIXIA HF R60](http://www.crutchfield.com/p_280HFR60/Canon-VIXIA-HF-R60.html?tp=6662).
  
  But any camera with WiFi upload capabilities will do--it's just a question of features, color matrix preferences, and cost.
