so my video camera has come to its end. I used it to just get the basic gist of filming. It has served me pretty well for the last year and a half and its time for me to get a new one. So these are the specs the kind of features i want in the camera.
-Price Range: Under $1000
-HD. i have a mac, pretty fast. and i need good quality video.
-Slow-mo capability. I want a camera so when i edit, i can use slowmo but without it being all blurry and fuzzy. Pretty clear quality.
-Good quality video. From my experience with my camera, the quality wasnt that good and it was hard to do any kind of editing without it looking like crap.
-Not too difficult to use. i want a camera that has good features, features that arent too hard to use but yet again not just the straight out basic camera.
-durable. I want this camera to be durable. I want it to last me a couple of years. I will most likely be buying a bunch of accessories.
-Good zoom. I want a camera that i can take shots that are pretty far away. i wont only be using it skiing but for more including soccer, fishing trips, family trips ect.
-I dont want cassete or cd. i want either the like internal hard drive or miniSD.
-Good battery life. I know most cameras dont have really good battery life but i want a descent one, not one with like an hour battery life. I would probably buy an extra battery if needed.
What i've been looking at:
-HV30
-Canon X series(probably not cuz of price but if i found one for under $1000 i would consider it).
-And Lastly the Canon HF series
