Hello-
I am new to the forums here and am looking for some help. I recently decided to jump into the digital age and buy an HD camera. I have used mini-DV for years, and for photography have used 35mm and older nikon digital cameras.
Anyways- I do not know a lot about HD cameras or DSLR's, and was looking for some advice at what to purchase. I don't have the money to buy something very expensive, but am looking at an 8-1,000 budget and would pay off a more expensive camera over time if it came down to that.
I am basically looking for the best bang for my buck, and would mostly be shooting video projects and short films, so I am looking for something that would be best for that, but would also not be a $6,000 camera. I would also be shooting photos.
I am not that up to date with canon and nikon products. I am basically looking for something suitable to get freelance photo/video jobs with, and that would be reliable and up to date for today's standards. I have had to turn down free lance gigs due to not having proper new gear. Please let me know, thanks a lot.
