Re: Decent Video Camera Recommendations?
I recommend get an app to put on their iPhones / androids, and they can film with that.

Re: Decent Video Camera Recommendations?
From what I've seen, the Sony RX10 II produces some amazing footage that I think beats out the AX100 and the X70. The RX10 II footage looked very similar to the A7S and while I don't have any Sony cameras I'm very interested in the RX10 II.
For someone looking for a camera with a relatively large sensor, XLRs, power zoom it looks like the Panasonic DVX200 is pretty great. The footage I've seen looked like it could have come out of a GH3 or GH4 and the convenience of having a fixed lens with power zoom, NDs, and XLRs makes it very appealing. |

Re: Decent Video Camera Recommendations?
and doesn't the x70 only do 4K at 60 mbps?
I like the size of those for portability in my case, as well as the cost, and would imagine the pictures would line up nicely with the NX100 since it's the same sensor (likely). |

http://www.dvinfo.net/forum/sony-pxw...-industry.html One person pointed out "even Sony's tiny "Action Cam" records 4k at 100Mbp/s." However, my guess is that the low bitrate doesn't make it a bad camera or make the 4K upgrade worthless. It probably mostly means that if you need to color correct a shot it's not going to look as good as if it were a higher bitrate. I still think the Panasonic DVX200 produces MUCH nicer footage than the X70, has better dynamic range, and will be much easier to grade/color correct if needed. Here's a look at some footage from the camera: I think you could fool most people into thinking this was footage from the GH4. While the GH4 is less expensive, this camera has a power zoom lens which is equivalent to a 29.5 to 384.9mm on a 35mm camera, built in ND filters, built in XLRs, dual record slots, 4K 60p, SDI output, and 5 axis stabilizer. |

I know what you are saying, but that last sentence seems weird! Why would anyone want to fool people into thinking they are using a camera thats a quarter the price? lol.
