Looking For a Camera/Lens On a Budget.

[Ben Moak]

the canon is a 34, just get it. and shooting with a vid camera is going to be alot less of a hassle than with a dslr, and lenses cost a butt ton

 

[Zach!]

yes but your just wasting your time with camcorders at bestbuy.....

 

[Ben Moak]

he said he can get stuff free there or something so i assume thats why he's buying from there and not somewhere like B&H

Thanks Guys, im not a professional filmer anyway. This will be fine for now.
I'll be self filming alot anyway. No Filmer. :/

 

[Ben Moak]

even better considering shooting with a dslr would require someone to be focusing it constantly

and i would suggest getting a tripod

 

[Derek Seay]

I have a tripod. Not sure on the brand, but it's good.

 

[Ben Moak]

alright good, what fish you gonna get?

my suggestion: http://opteka.com/OPTSC37FE.aspx

It's a babydeath i know that.

Don't get a JVC-HM anything. The sensor is small and the mbps is so low, the quality is pretty poor even though it claims "1080p" and when you put a fisheye on it won't focus properly.

Listen to Joe

Try to get a cheap used HV20/30 of ebay or something u can get them pretty cheap nowadays, and theyre great. And then get an Opteka Baby Death for it and youre set

i was just watching one on ebay and it sold for 380 shipped
and yes i know how stuff can skyrocket in the last 60 seconds i have bought and sold so much shit on ebay

I've been looking for a cheap DVC30 for a while now, and all the ones I see for under $450 are all broken or "almost good condition." The one I'm watching right now has a broken humidity sensor and it's $230.
