Im thinking of buying Canon 7d. Do you think it is a good camera for the price. And if i do get it, is their anything else i will need? The reason i picked this camera is because i need a DSLR for Photography but i would want one with Full HD video. Are their any other choices? (Sorry for sounding so newbish) :huh:

It's a great camera.

Used it for the first time on our last flick. I lol'd when I first saw it - after I saw the footage (and simple lens selections), I became a believer.

is their anything else i will need?

Lots and lots of memory cards. :)

Can't answer the sound-recording quality question. We had an actual audio guy doing that.

The memory cards were square - I forgot the type, but you see them all the time on other devices that use memory cards. No problem finding them, that's for sure.

I was doing a little more research and found that the Canon EOS Rebel T1i Digital SLR Camera also shoots full HD Video. Is it good for the price. I would like a good camera since to me, this is alot of money to deal with. I dont worry much about sound due to the fact i will buy an external mic. But as to the video footage, is it any good?

If your going Cannon I would suggest either the T2i (NOT the T1i) or the 5DMII.

The 7D is okay but if your going to spend that much for a HDSLR might as well go 5DMII or save for some lenses, batteries, and memory cards. 7D is a great PHOTO camera but if I read my stuff right the T2i vs 7D for video isn't much of an improvement.

Also get an external mic, either the Rode Video Mic etc or better. If all your sound productions are going to have an audio guy, then you can squeak by without it.
