Canon EOS 5D Mark II
msmforever69 asked:


Hello, let me make this quick and to the point. I have around 3k. I’m purchasing a camera and a camcorder. I am primarily a photographer, but I really would like to be able to take some stunning and high quality video.

My question is….do I get a nikon D300 w/lenses for around 2300 and just pick up a normal HD camcorder for around 700….

Or do I just get the Canon EOS mark ii 5d so i can use that for both video and photography.

It seems like the video abilities of the mark ii are better than those of your typical 700 dollar HD camcorders…at least from what I have seen samples wise, and on youtube HD.
