whats the best hand held camcorder for making a Indie film?

Q. Ok so i am making a Movie. Well a Independent movie. I am on a low budget. So what is the best possible camcorder to use to shoot this movie. It has to be in HD. And im shooting kinda like a documentary but it is a horror movie and it is shot a lot in the dark. So what is the best for this. And what is the best speacial effects software. I am on a low budget though.

A. Hi Michael:

"Low budget" is a very relative term: Low-budget to Steven Spielberg is a couple million bucks; to me it's $100,000 or so. To you, probably a lot less!

Post an update edit using the "Additional Details" link, and give us some real-world dollar figures, please. You'll get a much better Answer from the good Contributors on here.

Low-light shooting is a good point you noted, and is an important detail. Your "pseudo-documentary" style horror film sounds a lot like the "Blair Witch Project" format, so that also gives us some insight as to what you want to shoot.

By "Special Effects" you need to be more specific, also. Do you mean "green screen" (ChromaKey) effects? Or do you want realistic 3D monsters popping out of people's bodies? (There you'd need something like Maya and a good artist/animator to pull that off.)

hope this helps,

What is a good wireless video transmitter for HD Camcorders?
Q. I do live web streaming, and this year i have moved to HD. I have a cannon X10 HD camcorder that I would like to take across the football field, probably a distance no greater than 1500 feet in any direction. Money is not a huge issue but I'm not wanting to spend more than $2000

A. well... start here

You need to contact them for pricing. Expect to spend in excess of $10,000.

Or look into Titan. May not be HD, but it is affordable and meets your distance requirements. bhphotovideo.com carries their gear.
