Budget HD Video Camera?

[jarrodr]

Hi guys,

I want to buy a good HD Video Camera, at most R5000.

If anyone can educate me on HD Video camera 101 that would be great.
Also, know of any cheap places?

Regards,
Jarrod.

You can pick up a GoPro for a lot less I think. Great for sport and outdoor use. Very good video quality.
