There are several issues, which possibly includes little/no experience in using camcorders.
Whilst yr Budget is reasonable, you will need to include additional batteries and Memory-Cards - then there is the need for a tripod ( a whole field of possibilities )... you can get acceptable ones from under £50,. but sturdier models tend to be more ( and heavier - the photographer's dilemma ).
Radio mics tend to be expensive as you may need one which can change channels ( many promoters may be using similar frequencies and you don't want interference ). Perhaps you can say "Why" you need this, as using a mic for interviewing (for example) can be very tricky and difficult to control.
Finally you say you'll be posting on YT which is fine, but may restrict the quality - this can be a good thing, as it implies a cheaper camcorder "should" do just fine. However, you'll need to EDIT the clips and possibly include an additional voice to join things together. This can be done with most video editors and some will direct the output to YT if you've set up an account.
However, filming, controlling the microphone, the Public and others that will want to hog the time ( to promote their own stuff ), and Edit is likely to take some time.... as you progress you will realise the "early stuff" just wasn't very good ((Er, unless you are exceptional!)).
SO I wonder that you don't: either/both
1) Join a local film-making club to learn the basics.
2) Ask them to assist/film your next Event/Show -
For that way you will have a better idea of the Gear you need - and who is going to operate it, make notes and do the Edit. Multiple camcorders are useful as Events tend to have "happenings" some distance apart.
Hope that helps . . . but do take yr time before spending Money! |
