New video camera?



I know this question comes up a lot but i copy and pasted from the sticky to make it a little easier.

1) What is your budget?

I would like to spend around $500. I would be fine with buying a used one of ns.

2) What experience do you already have with cameras?

While I haven't owned my own Ive used my friends dslrs pretty often.

2) What gear, if any, do you currently have?

None

4) What are you planning to shoot and how do you want to use your

camera?

I plan on using it to shoot edits and stuff at first but I do want to venture into other things

5) Do you want a camera that you can hand to your friends?

I will be doing a good amount of filming and the other person has experience with cameras

6) When filming skiing, how do you tend to shoot?

I plan on doing a mix of everything from follow cams to tripods and other stuff

7) What computer do you currently have/use to edit (if not currently

editing, what would you most likely use)? If you can provide specifics,

such as hard drive space, RAM, processor size, that would be great.

Currently Im not too sure what computer I will be editing on.

7) What program do you currently edit on? How familiar are you with it

(1- just learning; 10- I can make tutorials and know the keyboard

layout)

Most likely premiere elements

Thanks for the help

 
I am selling a Canon HV20. Awesome camera, works as well as the day I bought it. Including an extra battery, and an awesome .75x conversion lens that gives it a much wider FOV.
Uses tapes, unfortunately I won't have any to sell with it. HD tapes from Sony are pretty cheap online.
The HV20 films in 1920x1080, with 29.92fps and 24 film fps. Will also include the original box, the manual, and all the cables that came with it.
$500 firm.
 
In my opinion, even though i dont have much experience with the hv20, get a canon hf200, its imo best consumer camera out there
 
not sure on the price, but the panasonic tm700k i think it was, looked like a great handycam style cam
