Hello!
I currently film with a Canon Vixia HF-M30, with a filter over it, and a lens hood. My videos come out pretty well, I'm pretty satisfied with them, but the audio is obviously bad. I use a seperate shotgun mic for audio.
But onto the Canon Rebel T3. Oddly enough, these 2 cameras are about the same price, (599) but the Rebel T3 seems so much better, and seems to have many more features. They both shoot in 720p, and I'll probably hook my Rode VideoMic into whichever one I end up using. Is the Rebel T3 enough of an upgrade from the Hf-M30? If so, why?
EDIT: I've learned that it doesn't have an external mic output, which is a huge turnoff to me, since the onboard audio is not very good. Still I'd like to hear what anyone has to say about the difference between the T3 and my HfM30
