What's A Good Camera For Filmmaking That Is Under $1000?

Yeah...

Link I don't know, would this do the trick? I don't do this kind of stuff, so I wouldn't know.

That camera has good quality; I might check it out.

It's probably a lot cheaper in Australia.

Haha yeah, probably...

What do you plan on recording?

I'm filming a music video for some guys; I want that 2012 film quality.

Maybe I should just save up my money and rent/buy a Sony HDR-FX1 or a Sony PMW-EX3 or a Canon EOS Rebel T2i or a Canon EOS 5D Mark II or a cough, Red Epic.

Haha that's awesome.

I need to start doing music videos. Expand my shit.

You'd be better off just getting a classic 90's camera, man.

They are cheaper these days and have that notorious quality.

Once I get a sick song in this new studio, I'll try making a music vid. Should be fun. Thanks for the idea haha

You should get a camera like the one this guy uses:

If you're on a budget, get a Canon EOS Rebel T2i.

Damn, why did I not see this thread?
I'm an expert when it comes to video.

Btw, Jason is right.

If you're amateur and don't have much money, stick to cheap Digital SLR cameras and HD camcorders.

Those cheap HD camcorders are pretty shit, though.

Well, some are ok, but some have awful exposure and white balance quality and horrible MP4 compression.

Hmmm, I need to get a camera too if I'm going to be making music videos.

Me too, lmao.

I have a shitty HD camcorder atm.
It's a Traveler HD 10X.

I've had it since late 2009.

Interesting.

u should get a red camera if you what that professional look

u can get some from ebay cheap

I think I'm going to get a good camera when my studio gets built. Videos and singles go hand in hand.
