Is this one good? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9244748&type=product&id=1218066283830
And thats why i made the thread. -_-

Yea, thats the hv40. A great camera, but its cheaper here and free shipping http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/597424-REG/Canon_3686B001_VIXIA_HV40_High_Definition.html
You should also get a Twoneil lens adapter and a Canon 50mm for it, the footage will be godly

http://www.twoneil.com/products.html the adapter

the canon lens, http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/12142-GREY/Canon_2514A002_Normal_EF_50mm_f_1_8.html

Recommending a lens adapter to someone who is asking what camera to buy doesn't seem like the greatest idea...

Is that camera good though? The HV40. You seem to know a lot about cameras, you made a huge sticky thread on them. It's for filming my friends and me skating, and scooting. And is that a good fisheye? I really don't know much about cameras and i am still hesitant on buying anything. I really want a Sony FX1000 but it's $3199.99 and i don't have that kind of money. So basically what i am asking is this a good camera and fisheye for what i am spending?

Yeah the Canon HVs are the craze right now for super low budget film makers and stuff. Deff worth your money.
