What is "the best bang for the buck" video camera for uploading youtube videos? (Music Production)?

Hey there I want to start recording video for the music I produce. Any suggestions for a high quality video camera with good sound quality? Price Range: $100-$1000 Thanks, God Bless!

1. Just sear on the camera reviews, getting the camera is easy, but what format do you want that can take some time. Do you want use hard drive cameras, Media card cameras, Forget mini-dvd!!!! or mini-DV there are pro's and con's for all. If you plan to edit the footage and you do not have auptodate PC/Mac then you are going to struggle with the HDD and Media card cameras, also HD Mini-DV. Std Mini_dv would be ok. Because the video is highly compressed with the HDD and media camcorders any editing package will have to work hard! As you are going to put the soundtrack on after you have taken the video. If not then you are going to need a camera with an external mic socket, although camcorders audio is good its not up to high quality music. I think you need to forget sub $500-600 I have said to so many people you get what you pay for. If you want good then you need to be looking at the upper end of your budget. I hope there is some food for thought there. Good luck RR
