I’m filming a snowboard video. I’m looking for a superb quality video camera for under $300. Any suggestions ?

Saturday, October 10th, 2009

It is for a senior project in school. This is a one time use, so I am not really up for spending more than $300.

by Superb…that opens the door to a LOT of interpretation.

You could do very nicely by locating a Mini-DV camera on the famous auction site. I’d go with maybe a Sony DCR TRV model 19. 20, 22, 23, 27, or 30. These are excellent cameras with good optics and very easy edit capabilities on a decent comptuer using firewire (IEEE 1294 ports). Your XP’s Windows Movie Make can do a good enough job to pass for ‘professional’ for what you are intending to do.

CAUTION to the wind though.. ANY camera needs to acclimate to the climate without damaging the recording heads or tape. If the camera is at a nice warm room temperature and you take it outside to a cold an humid environment and start shotting right away, be careful

Good Luck

What is a good HD video camera to use to make a snowboard movie?

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

I don’t want a helmet camera, i just want a HD video camera that is weather proof and can withstand the cold and being dropped in the snow. I’m not to worried about price, please provide names and good websites so i can check them out. Oh and if possible could it be a HD tape video camera, but don’t worry if it isn’t

Any HDV video camera will fit your needs.

They are available in a variety of models from consumer level for a couple hundred dollars to highly advanced professional for several thousand dollars. Your budget will limit your options, but there are hundreds to choose from.

Yahoo will suspend the accounts of anyone who provides links to any site made for shopping, selling, or has a shopping cart system. You will have to go searching on your own.

Looking for a good snowboard video camera in the range of 800 to 1200 dollars with image stablizer and handle?

for follow cam

Someone else asked a question like this ages ago.

You want a camera with few or no moving parts as the vibration is going to beat the camera up. so HDD and mini-dv are out, Mini-dvd does not even get a mention.

so you are down to media card camera’s (Sony’s sd cameras) there are plenty in that price bracket. Obviously the more you pay the better the features,

don’t worry too much about a handle on the camera if you follow this link you will see why, its a handle that you put on your camera gives you much more control

there are many companies the make this sort of thing.

Good luck
