    What kind of camera should I get to shoot my own content?

    What kind of video camera should I get?

    Should you have a video camera AND a regular camera?
    I'm guessing that still shots from a video wont be good quality.

    And is there a quaility camera that makes it easy to go from cam to electronic format?

        If you have the bucks, get yourself a Nikon D100

        Or if you don't have that kind of budget, grab a Nikon Coolpix 5700

        And if that's too much then a Nikon Coolpix 4500

        Will probably do you just fine. Call me biased, but I think Nikon and Canon make the BEST digital Cameras on the market!

          your old video cams are analog and require a convertor like a dazzle. the newer camcorders have a firewire output or usb for the cameras.

          make sure your new purchases have some type of way to connect directly to firewire or usb and you will be very happy.
