Best Camera for Mockumentary TV Show

[adastrafilm]

I am in the pre-pro stages of a tv show that will be filmed in Branson, MO. The show will have the style of a mockumentary/single-camera setup (similar to The Office, Workaholics, and Parks and Recreation)

So what cameras (reasonable in price) would best work for this type of show?

Hi adastrafilm - for a studio show, I would get a $1995 Blackmagic Studio Camera - and, if you need a recorder, a $327.75 Blackmagic Hyperdeck Shuttle.

The camera was just released, so there isn't a lot of footage, but here are a few demos on the "Blackmagic Studio Camera channel" on Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/channels/blackmagicstudiocamera/93151801

Hope this is helpful!

Have you a DOP? Do you want to film it yourself? Have you filming experience?

You say "reasonable in price" but what is your budget?

Reasonable in price for a true professional TV show is light years away from the micro indie budget (the majority of the members here).
