I don't think any tablet currently being made is 'great' for recording video. Any of the current mid to high end tablets that have an 8MB pixel camera are 'decent' for recording video, but do you really want to be the guy holding up a big tablet to record video at a sporting event?? This isn't the answer you're looking for, but it's the accurate answer.
If the pocket camcorder takes good video, use it, then transfer the video to your computer or other mobile devices.
