Camera Opinions

[SMOOTHOPR8TR]

looking at buyin a new camera for the upcoming season. i would like to get a bit more aggressive in getting shots and putting stuff on film. does anybody have any opinions on what camera, be it a still cam or video that would best suffice for a intermediate photographer??

n00b!!! DVX100, duh

 

[SMOOTHOPR8TR]

good point...im the noob. what brand is that, oh great veteran??

 

[alpineplease]

that would be the panasonic DVX100, or if you are feeling really sauced then get the new HDX100.

the dvx is sick, but not an intermidiate camera, first off, what is your price range/which would you prefer, still or video, sub 1000 you can get a great DLR and start collecting lens etc. and have a sick set up, if your looking for video, either try to find an older but quality 3 chip, like the vx1000, if you want a new camera, look for a top of the line single chip over a bottom of the line three chip

i dont have a price range but maybe lookin at what i can get for under a G and then what i can get if i spend 1500 - 3k?

 

[alpineplease]

ok, for a g, get a panasonic gs500, you can put a big lens on it and be merry. for 3g, get a dvx100, and dont question

how good is the qual. on those pv-gs500s? i'm looking at that or a hdr-hc7

you almost need to narrow your price range...a 3k camera will put a 1500 camera to shame.

HVX if you are serious

but a VX2100 would work for you.
