What new camera should I get

[steezebeast]

So I'm looking for a camera to shoot videos with that won't lose TOO much resolution when it goes slow motion on the computer. I'm low on money too. I want to start analyzing my tricks and stuff, and possibly make an edit just for kicks.

 

[steezebeast]

soooo?

 

[HeathR]

ill sell u my cannon zr 85

you could always shoot in slowmo mode, i know the hdr-hc3(5, or 7) has this mode. super duper!

 

[steezebeast]

how much are they?

 

[PurpleSkier]

just find a camera that you can adjust the FPS on. The more FPS the less you'll lose when slowing it down.

 

[steezebeast]

oh nice

how much are those normally?

 

[EVAN.F]

usually alot

Get a RedOne cam. It has enough resolution to be blown up to the size of a theatre screen! It can shoot 1 - 60 fps and has a super shallow depth of field.

you can get them for around $600 at Bestbuy

 

[steezebeast]

thats a lot of dough I don't have that much

what about in the $200-300 range

 

[mcnutty]

if you can't afford $600 you might as well just get a disposable one

 

[steezebeast]

I'm trying to save up for college too, so I have to keep my buyings small. This is probably going to be my present to myself for my b-day in the summer anwyays, so I'm splurging by over $100 for this.

 

[steezebeast]

?

100-300 isn't gunna get you anything but a real shit camera.

 

[SlickRick.]

i have the 7 and the slowmo record only records for like 3 seconds. its made for like golf swings.

 

[steezebeast]

damn well I guess I'd better ask for a raise =/

 

[cmeriptahoe]

hahahahahaha.

 

[c+ald]

yea so your gona be stuck with a shitty camera. my canon optura 10 was in that range and it films perfectly fine. slomo is great too. its an amazing camera in the sun but dont even attempt to shoot in low light with it. canon doesnt seem to be too advanced in low light...

 

[PASKIINGSUCKS]

Not great but pretty good for what it is, my canon A620 was 300 when I bought it and it will shoot 60 fps or 30 with better res.

 

[leckett1]

whoa whoa whoa 600? on their website they advertised it as 12 500....

 

[Capt.Flannel]

that'd be a joke, leck.

 

[leckett1]

wait my bad.... $17 500.

scroll to the bottom to see the price.

and no xtakewarninx it is not a joke, it is what's on their website. im sorry

 

[ski_cartel]

damit every time i see that camera I want to sell everything i own to buy it. Fuck its nice, but leave it to oakley to help make a camera that costs fucking 20g's

 

[dozerr]

hahahahahahahaha he was saying that tana's post was a joke you goofball

 

[Capt.Flannel]

yup.

 

[[~_~]]

Once again I've succeded in rustlin' up some trouble.

and $17,000 is really fucking cheap for a camera like that. I've seen 35mm cams that are worth around $90,000 for the body alone, without any lenses

 

[pDails]

god damn that camera is SICK!
