I'm starting to film a low-budget indie horror/zombie film and I'm trying to choose a good priced camera. I've been doing some research on some prosumer cameras like the Sony vx2000 and others around that price range but i'm having a hard time picking one. I'm needing a camera that will work well in low light shots. I'm not worried about getting an HD capable camera or one that records in 24p I can adjust that with editing. With the research I've done I know that it would look better if I got a HD camera and stepped it down to SD in editing. As of right now I don't have the funds to purchase a high end camera. I have seen alot of cameras between $500 and $2000 that look like what I need but I need to get the best for my budget.
I definitely need a camera with manual controls. The camera we have now is an older digital 8 Sony Handycam trv730. This works good in daytime situations but it has automatic controls so I can't adjust the white balance for low light scenes. I really need to get a camera that has 3ccd and I would like to get one with interchangable lenses(for wide shots of zombie hordes!)
