Help buying a Video camera

[TeenageWasteland]

I'm looking to get a video camera, but i was wondering what specifications is should consider, and what brands are waterproof. I only want to make like a 3 minutes video or so, so nothing serious, but i wuold like the quality to be decent. What would be the best investment?
