can anyone recommend a decent quality budget digital video camera?

[m3j0n]

So im looking for a budget video camera that shoots good quality for car walk-arounds (exterior and interior in varying lighting conditions). Can anyone point me in the correct direction? I am by no means trying to make high end videos/montages, but rather just documenting the condition of cars I sell. I do a 2-3 minute walk around of the car's exterior and interior prior to shipping it out to the customers to "cover my ass" type of deal. let me know if you have any recommendations. I have a canon xti dslr and has been good to me so far over the last 7 years, so I figured canon would be a good start, but I really just have no idea what to look for in a video camera. Thanks for your help!

There's a really good canon that totally makes up for lack of skill and practice. But they don't make it anymore and they only sell the left handed one on eBay.

Decent quality? Budget? Just use your phone.

say what you want, but at least Im not trying to figure out how to make 4 cents off scrap metal "core" parts.. Times must be pretty rough, huh?....Pathetic that you feel like you need to post in every one of my threads uselessly referencing a hockey stick rather than being even 1% helpful. Just remember, it takes the same amount of effort to be a decent person as it does to be a total fuckign douche - the choice is yours. Be it as it may, I really do hope our paths cross one day.

I'm not sure exactly how I "feel" about cigars, but I feel like I know exactly where I can put at least 5 of them....

Who mentioned hockey sticks?

[m3j0n]

Yeah that's why I tossed them in a dumpster.

Nice threats btw. Pm sent.

Riiiiight.... but you actually posted a thread about it first....

no threats here... just hopes and dreams, just hopes and dreams.

Your hopes and dreams are to meet someone you deem pathetic? Ha.

you can keep putting words in my mouth all you want, I really don't mind. Bottom line, I just want my path and your path to cross, I really do. You can take that in black and white, read into that, interpret that, or twist that however you would like.

now that you have successfully derailed yet another one of my threads, can you leave me the fuck alone on here or is your time really of zero value?

yep. I'm not exactly sure why you have some weird online vendetta against me and need to do this in every thread I Post in OT in an attempt to gather info from other member; I really don't have any idea. Either way, if this is really what you do to enjoy your time on this planet, so be it.

for starters, how is this camera? Anyone have any firsthand experience with it?

Hockey sticks and curry aside, do you realize there is an entire sub forum devoted to photography?

I was gong to say any Canon within the budget, but it seems you already on the right track.

I think my microwave is on the fritz again. Frozen burritos come out flaming hot on the ends, yet the middle is half frozen

Rx100 or gh4 or above.

Nope. It's working perfectly.

This.


IMHO KumbaCam - 3 Axis Handheld Gimbal Stabilizer works well.
