Hi all!
I've been after a good camera for video recording for a while now.
Camera
Originally I was gonna buy Sony a6300, which for a while was at £650 with original 16-50mm Lens.
Reading reviews and opinions on the camera it seems to be a good weapon of choice.
Now before I push the button, I am wondering if there are other cameras I should consider within same or slightly more budget?
Videos will be a vlog type videos, with people talking and scenary shots as well in between. It will be more of set up and edited video than just holding the camera and walking around amateurly (is that a word?)
Camera needs to focus quickly when moved around ideally.
I am trying to find a camera for around £700 with best quality I could get so at the moment a6300 ticks the boxes, after seeing it in real life performance.
Microphones
Originally I been after lavalier microphones but been told they are crap because they make a lot of noise on movement such as on clothing.
Not sure how true though and if there are work arounds that?
Would a shotgun mic be better or should i be investing in both types?
Thank you guys in advance for any help
