I'm a college student studying film and I would really like to save up for a nice camera. What would be some of the best options that wouldn't be too costly (under $500) and have some of the best quality video?
A HD camera...okay...so in that case we'll say under $800.

Any specific brands or models that are the best?

Answer
If you want good quality videos I would suggest you should save more money and get high definition camcorder which around $550 - $600

I'm wanting to purchase a camcorder and would ideally like it to have long battery life and good quality video. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, I just need something that records high quality video and has a good long battery life for fairly affordable - preferably $200 or less.
