DSLR's Taking Over

I have been researching video cameras for the past few months. After time and time again of saying “That’s the one I want!”, I finally made my decision of which camera I would choose to buy. I didn’t want to spend my bank account so I didn’t buy top-of-the-line cameras like the 5D from Canon or an over-priced Sony.

So, what camera did I settle with?

I bought the T2i from Canon which is part of the Rebel series. It is one of the best cameras on the market right now for its price and its quality. It cost me $1,100 and it came with the 18-55mm lens as well as the 55-250mm lens which I got $100 less than retail value because I bought everything together. I also bought a UV filter, and I ordered a 3-way bracket which is currently housing the RODE mic I purchased and soon will also be housing a light kit. I also purchased a fish eye lens, and I am saving up some more money to purchase a HD LED screen to film videos more easily.  

The camera is great, and the quality is one word: STUNNING.  I couldn't believe at how crystal clear the images and the videos were.  If you're looking into buying a DSLR, go with the T2i.  It's affordable and provides you with a ton of features and superior quality. 

Below is a test video I made the day I bought the camera. Don't forget to watch it in HD ;)
