I currently use a Toshiba Camileo H30 for filming all my videos. I just ordered 3 16" x 24" softbox light boxes. 1 is a top down hair light and the other 2 are upright lights as pictured below. And will be getting a Connon T3i with a 18-155 mm lens to shoot my main videos with?

For editing I use a 2012 Macbook pro and currently use iMovie 2011 but am upgrading to Final Cut Pro X this week!

What do you guys use?

Did use a Canon 650D, but just pre-ordered a 70D now, with a 18-135mm STM lens.
Also have a GoPro Hero3 Black edition with all accessories.

Just sold my 2012 MacBook Pro (2.9GHz i7, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) and am awaiting the new retina update and will buy the max spec 15" available.

Also have a 2013 MacBook Air 11" (max spec), which I use as a portable machine, and very light editing while on the go.

Also have a max spec 2012 Mac Mini Server (2.6Ghz Quad i7, 16GB RAM, 2x1TB HDD), which I use as my home server, and to sometimes upload content to YouTube.
Connected to the server is a Drobo 5D, via ThunderBolt, which has 5x3TB WD Red HDDs, and is the storage area for all my raw video, projects, backups etc.

Use a 1TB Buffalo ThunderBolt portable HDD as my scratch disk.
Have several 2TB USB3.0 My Passport drives for general storage and offsite data backups.

As for software, I use Screenflow or Final Cut Pro X.
 
I use an Ipad for filming (Because I'm strange like that), Then I put all the videos together into one big video in windows movie maker then I use Adobe Premier Pro CS5 to edit it all ... I have a strange way of working ... :3
 
To record my game i am playing i use FRAPS to record my voice i use Audacity so i can adjust my voice volume easy when editing and for my editing i use Sony vegas pro 12
 
Recording: Fraps/Bandicam/ Roxio Game Capture HD Pro
Audio: Universal Ex-05 Headset/Audacity
Editing: Sony vegas 11
Film:Laptop Webcam
