Video Camera

What is a good video camera to use for professional videography?

Looking to buy a camera to start my business video. There are so many professional cameras there, I gather views on what the standard camera. Thank you!

A real professional camcorder quality and not a device that happens to have highly compressed video and audio has only one entrance and no mic or manual audio control? The short list the following tasks: system of lenses over 40mm in diameter. Audio-in connection (s) and control Listening guide. Manual zoom, manual focus, shutter speed manual, manual white balance and other controls outside of the product and easily accessible. Least amount of compression applied to the writing of video footage to the media storage. Starting point that meets the four criteria is the Sony HDR-FX1000, but it is only semi-professional … Pro year begins on the Sony HVR-V1U, HVR-Z1, HVR-Z5U, HVR-Z7U, Canon XHA1 and Panasonic AG-HVX200 and JVC GY series … And back. Other points to consider: the tripod (Bogen-Manfrotto is a good start – the nominal weight must be at least 2 times the the weight of your camera, with a head of fluid). High-capacity rechargeable battery or two (the manufacturer of the camcorder, not third parties). case hard to protect your investment (Pelican and SKB are my favorites). microphones. In reality is subjective – but least of a shotgun microphone, a variety of Complete UHF wireless lav, a stereo microphone. Of course, if you still have your sound person with you, which could provide these elements. Cables. AC 50-foot extension cord, two 25-foot XLR microphone cables Externsion. Next level of things to do: Lenses: Wide-angle and tele … Perhaps the tele-macro. Filters. video light. Video Battery Belt light – if properly calibrated, this could replace the high capacity rechargeable batteries. Hold devices … SpiderBrace each shoulder mounting system. Steadicam / Steadycam vest system. LANC. Next level of things to get: the camera crane (I like the Kessler + tripod and head). This is part of a wiring harness (LANC extension, Video monitor, audio monitor) AMD accessories (monitor, meter, etc.).. So if you subscribe to the wheels Kessler tripod or need something like Dolly their options or do something else … and of course the remote control pan-tilt head … This list is not complete – but I never … I guess because I never asked. ++++++++++++++ And a fast computer with lots of RAM and tons of available hard disk space on external drives (at least, do not use the same drive as the home computer operating system for video editing project files) … and a good size monitor (20 inches or more).
