hey guys :)
thought i would post a thread on what cameras people use to record their videos. i don't have a nice camera so at the moment i am using my iPad mini! it has pretty good quality but would love a better camera... what type of camera do you use? and what do you recommend that is a cheap but good quality camera?
 
I personally use the Canon Rebel T2i. Really great, relatively cheap camera. Though if you go with the T3i or later you can get a display that comes out and rotates and it's a little easier setting up videos. But yea that's basically it! Usually runs about $300.
 
More and more often we are using just our phones for videos (an old Sharp model). They do not attract so much attention and they are handy. The sound is bad though and no real zoom function but if we need zoom we use an old (and partially broken) Everio camera (the cheapest model we could find 3 years ago). We rather concentrate on the content of the movies and not so much on the visual aspect. So we are definitely not "example" YouTubers :)
 
They are a couple of good cheap cameras out there. The cameras listed below are Digital only because recording with dslr might be a bit of pain to setup and it is sometimes costly. I didn't put camcorder on there because I just don't like it at all.

Canon PowerShot Elph 330 HS-$179 at Amazon(Prefered)
Kodak PixPro FZ151-$127 at Amazon(Cheapest)
Fujifilm FinePix F700 EXR-$253 at Amazon
 
Most people who use DSLRs here seem to use the Rebel line, same here, 600D (or t3i in the US)
