Looking for a Professional Video Camera to use in my videography business!?
I’m starting a videography business (Weddings, parties, etc.) and have never bought a professional camcorder. I don’t know what to look for and would like some help on picking out the best one for not only a beginner like myself, but someone who is on a bit of a budget. (Nothing more than 2,000$)
you can consider buying
Sony HDR-FX7 3-CMOS Sensor HDV High-Definition Handycam Camcorder with 20x Optical Zoom
Record and play back HDV 1080i video; switchable recording in standard definition
ClearVid CMOS sensor; 20x optical zoom
Wide 3.5-inch Hybrid Touch Panel Clear Photo LCD Plus display

The GL2 is nice for that kind of thing.
Here it is on Amazon for just a hair over 2000, but I think you’ll be happy with it because it does nice work. Pretty much the same thing as an XL1 but smaller with picture a little sharper. And $3000 less!

you will not even get close to professional level with $2000 anything you do will have shake and focus problems and will be a typical "home movie" try renting when you get a gig
