I am a total beginner with cameras. I'm working in an athletics department at a college and will be filming sports both inside and outside, interviews and short stories. They have asked my equipment needs. Currently, we have FLIP HD cameras. I did a couple of projects with footage from the FLIP - I can edit - but, at the end of the day, I know the way the footage looks is going to matter and I don't think the Flip will cut it.
One thing I like about the Flip is that I don't have to digitize footage and it's really easy, of course. I think my total camera budget is going to be under $2000.00, maybe even less. I want my footage to look like this...

or this...
http://devour.com/video/a-very-zombie-holiday/ - without the vintage, grainy effect.
Can I do that on a limited budget? What equipment do I need?
Thank you so much for any help!!!
