Hey, i have started a YouTube channel and have been looking for some time at purchasing a good camera. I am wanting an Action Camera and a Camcorder/DSLR. I am so lost in what to choose there are just so many options!
I have used a Fuji Film S4300 and do like the quality, but I don't like the fact that it doesn't have rechargeable batteries and the 10 minute video limitation. The other thing that i don't like about it is that when it is recording you can only use digital zoom and cannot take advantage of its 26x optical zoom. So for my camera i am looking at a good optical zoom (20x +), long life rechargeable batteries, no tight video length limitations, and it would also be nice to be able to flip the screen round for recording myself. 1080p would be preferred but i could deal with 720p as that is what most videos are uploaded in anyway, and its not essential but I would like to have a mic in port. I know it's allot to ask for the tight budget of around £100 but help would be appreciated (I wouldn't mind looking at the second hand market).
As for the action camera I am looking to spend around £50, I am seriously looking at the SJ400 because it has the same mounting system as the leading manufacturer (GoPro) so there would be an abundance of mounting options out there. But still any recommendations would be very welcome!
Please help! And thank-you!
