So im looking for a camera setup that has good quality, but isn't incredibly expensive. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Easy setup that's been working good for me.

1)canon t2i rebel

2) wideangle lens for less "shakeyness" (kitlens works fine, but not prefered)

3) Buy a tripod you easly can transfor into a monopod/glidecam and back to tripod when needed.

4) Pirate premiere.

5) Enjoy.



And use google "how to" to figure this shit out. I've given you the guidelines, if you gotta ask for more you're a lazy fuck. (MEDIA AND ARTS FORUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Get a GoPro. Mount it on your helmet straight up and down, right at the very top of your helmet.

An ARRI ALEXA mounted with Angenieux's Optimo 24-290 f/2.5 is what you want.

I've had a Nikon D5000 for over 4 years now. I love it. It's outdated now with a new model so you should be able to pick up one for fairly cheap. Great camera also records video; and very easy to use.

I would far rather use an Arri x Zeiss Master Anamorphic prime, I'd keep the camera though
