I'm not sure if "Life in the ER" (that's the name of the show) is still using it, but last season they used the AG-EZ1 by Panasonic (it's kind of circular). It's a great MiniDV camera but had some problems in low light. It's also been used on the Tom Green show. There's a better model now, the AG-EZ30. It's better quality but it doesn't look as cool as the AG-EZ1 did.

I think he's looking for a good camcorder. I'd have to say the XL1 is the best. It's been used in many indie movies (When Love Walks In, The Good Life) and for many TV productions (Nightline (ENG), Howard Stern, Real World). It retails for about $3500. Goto www.canondv.com for more info.
