I just need it for beautiful shots and Beautiful video footage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Are you 100% sure or are you making a dumb statement? 100% sure. The T1i is probably the cheapest but thats going to be around £450+ Its like asking for a BMW for £15,000. You can get a Honda for that much that will do some of the things that the Bimmer can do, but you won't get the bells and whistles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prince Charming Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Brandon's right. It's nowhere near possible at that price point, doubt it will be for several years to come. You can get stuff like a Flip HD, but not a DSLR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulligan2k Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 second hand off ebay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Charming Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 It's still a fairly new feature that's come out on new DSLRs, so even second hand prices are likely to be in excess of ?200-300. I haven't actually checked this, but I'd be extremely suprised I was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argote Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 The Pentax K-x is the cheapest to handle this, it's 400 pounds: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pentax-K-x-Digital-Camera-Kit/dp/B002OEBTC8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1277722087&sr=8-1 I've also heard that its image quality is very good.

Instead of a half a second delay with phase difference AF, the contrast detect modes can take two or more seconds to lock focus." It also uses rechargeable AA batteries, meaning less power/battery life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Sony has the only implementation of live view where you can use Phase Difference AF while shooting in Live View (by using a second sensor) though none of their current cameras support taking Videos.

sundayx Veteran Posted June 28, 2010 Veteran Share Posted June 28, 2010 Just get a P&S camera that does 720p (which a lot of them does nowadays), something like a Nikon S6000 (quick Google) does the trick. 14MP, 720p@30 with a $250 MSRP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V-Tech Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Take a look at this: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/613611-REG/Canon_3818B001_EOS_Rebel_T1i_Digital.html This is a DSLR with the video recording you asked for. It's around $650 including tax, it's around ?450. Probably the cheapest one you can find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
