I am often asked about the best cameras for this kind of filming or for such a video. In today's brief, we will look at 3 different cameras and evaluate their strengths and weaknesses.
Panasonic HVX200A
Excellent camera quality
Writes to P2 card
Expensive
JVC GY-HM100
Great size
Creates files ready to work with Final Cut
Removable XLR inputs
Not very good results in low light.
Kodak Zi8
The smallest HD camera with microphone input and image stabilizer
Very inexpensive
No focus and approximation

Canon Vixia HFS10 (yes, four cameras)
Excellent for a camera in the range of $ 700- $ 1200.
