Lights, *CAMERA* Action!!!

[StevieP]

Could someone give me a bit of help with all this video malarky? I wanna burn a bit more of my student overdraft up with a digital camera that can do a bit of recording as well, something that I might be able to copy to my PC and do a bit of basic editing with Adobe Premiere. Now there are literally hundreds and f**king thousands of different types of cameras on eBay, what do I look for and what do I avoid?

What cameras do some of you guys and gals have and are they any good? I dont wanna spend more than a ton, would like to be able to record a several minutes of film with sound, not sure if thats possibly on the budget Im on but???

Help appreciated...

Cant go wrong with a Sony DSC series in my mind. I wont say this isnt very Clio related..

maybe he is gonna film his clio with the camera ?

depends on your budget but if you want to do full digital editing make sure you get a camera with a dv in/out.

its important to get the "in" part so that you can send your edited (on premier) footage back to the camera digitally.
