he did ask for a good editing program....

But either an HV20/30/40 or a gopro would be the best for quality IMO, just depends on what you want to do. Just fooling around and capturing the day with the buddies: gopro. If you want to get into filming and how everything works, get more manual control: HV20/30/40
