Me and a friend have been using gopros nd were tired of it. We are willing to throw down around 900 bucks. I just want suggestions for good video cameras for skiing that is around that price range. I was thinking about the T2i but im not positive what is the best. Just hit me up with responses on thread or message me! Thanks

in order from worst to best good cameras.

t3i, t2i, 7D. all canon

most people get t2i's because they are relatively affordable and only lack some of the features the 7D has. They are all excellent cameras with great customizable settings.

i would recommend getting the t2i and saving the rest for lenses/mounts. Cuz that shits expensive.

good luck.

I would take a t2i over a 7d any day even if they cost the same because of magic lantern.

Extremely legit site. The camera store (mikes camera) whenever it doenst have any mounts or lenses I want they order it from there. Last time (Mikes cameras) did not have a Glidecam 2000 they ordered from B&Photo. Legit ships fast.

Yeah this. Also if you're not going to be taking photos look into something else instead of a t2i. Nothing of the top of my head as of now
