Hi Guys,
My wife and I have never owned a video camera. We have decided with me heading Stateside next month it would be good to pick one up but have no idea where to start! I don't plan on being a DOP or anything or producing HD content for the local news network, just looking for a good, solid, reliable camera that we can use to capture life's special moments.
I own a Mac and have iMovie and could get FCP to if the video bug bites, but the main purpose is just capturing memories of holidays, children (still to come) etc.
Where does one begin looking and what to look for? Budget wise we could spring around $300-$700USD.
Cheers
Matt
