Hi guys,
As the title says, I'm looking for a better camera for different skits, funny clips, vlogging and so on (check about my channel to see what kind of vids I do). I'm looking for a good camera with a good autofocus, front facing microphone, hd filming. I need a camera that is good to use outside and inside too. Until today I filmed with my iPad 2, Vado HD and Panasonic Lumix Tz18 and I want something better. I have a budget at around 200$. Thanks !

From having thePanasonic Lumix DMC-SZ3, it has a brillant quality, picture quality and video quality. Can't remember where the microphone is, but take a look

I have the Panasonic Lumix DMC-Z20... That also takes great video (and also has an amazing zoom lens). It has a stereo microphone located on top of the camera. It has a fairly fast continuous autofocus and does well in low light. Low light performance is nowhere near my DSLR with a 1.8 35mm lens but that is to be expected.
 
I seriously recommend getting the canon 600d, it's so so good, you might be able to get it within your budget if you are willing to have a go on eBay or amazon :)

This is kind of expensive for me. But thanks for the suggestion. Any other suggestions ? Would be appreciated. Thanks !
 
After looking and searching I decided to buy one of those two cameras. Have you guys used one of them ? The HC has the mic build in the front part, so I guess that is better. But the lumix has better reviews on amazon and many more then HC. What would you guys do if you were me ? Thanks !

Panasonic Lumix ZS20 or
Panasonic HC-V500K Full HD

Hmm looks like they both do 1080p 60fps... Hard choice... I guess is depends. The ZS20 is probably going to be a much better still camera if you want to use it for that as well. I can tell you from experience that the ZS20 takes really nice video - I'd post some vids up for you on my other channel but I wouldn't be able to link to it in here... If I were you I would look up video samples on the web to help you decide.
