I am really not wanting to invest too much money into a camera, just something small and HD that I can shoot around with. If you have anything or know anything lemme know. like I said cheapp lol

I might look more into canons, I have been searching ebay.
I used to do a lot of filming and editing back when I did a few media classes, so I want to get back into it...but I kinda want zoom and something that I could work more with than a go pro

Be careful with "HD" cause i got the jvc everio and it said HD but is nothing like what you would expect from an HD camera. See my videos if you'd like to see what comes from it. I would also say make sure the settings are easily accesibly cause thats something I hate about mine. If I'm running manual it takes for ever to adjust and auto gives me horrible lighting except blue bird days at the mountain.
