Hellooooo to all.
I use my galaxy s3 to film videos... Mainly use the front camera. Front camera is 1.9 megapixels and the back is 8 megapixels.
Do you think it's fine to film with my gs3? Or should I try and upgrade to get some better camera, like a Canon? So far I've used my phone to film and i think it's pretty good quality as I try to film in natural lighting or in a well lighted area.
You can look at my videos to see the quality. Most were filmed with my front camera. One or two were filmed with the back camera.

your videos look really good actually keep up the good work ! from someone whos been on ytube for a long time u have a really good start
 
Get yourself a little tripod for it! I have a tripod adapter for my iPhone which comes in handy now and then ;)
 
I would get a tripod mount or something, as by the looks of your videos you're propping the phone up against something while recording.
I use this one if you're interested in getting one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/XSories-Pho...AAME/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1364749879&sr=8-1
It works really nicely and it holds my huge Note 2 :D
apart from that I don't see the need for you to upgrade straight away.. if you get a tripod mount it will make using the back camera a lot easier so your videos will be better quality straight off the bat :) maybe save up for the camera.. but it's not a must :)

Yeah, before I would prop it against something which was quite a pain, it's hard to find somewhere to prop it up without falling. :confused: But actually I just ordered a tripod mount the other day and it came on Friday, so I'm using that from now on! It works so much better. amazon(dot)com/gp/product/B008PF5FO8/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 that's the one I purchased, and even though it was a lot of money it was worth it :up: Thanks for the tips guys, already ahead of ya ;)
 
I use my iphone that works fine, so you should have no problem either I don't think, I should get a tripod by the sounds of it too
