What determines how clear a camcorder is?

[Lucass]

I already own a camcorder and i want a better one with higher quality video. So i just wanted to know what makes a camcorder have sharper/clearer video.

Generally, the higher the numbers of the resolution makes a higher quality image (so, for example while shooting in HD 1920x1080 is better than 1440x1080)Also, the more frames per second, the better looking the end result is going to be (so 60fps is better than 30fps)
