I've been shooting stills for some time, but not really worried about video.
However, my guitar teacher has asked for some advice on what he should look to buy to help him produce decent quality videos to support his lessons - he currently uses the camera on his smart phone, which is OK, but he's looking to step up from that.
The individual videos will probably be within the 30 minute limit for a camera video, so that's not a problem.
His key requirements are a decent sharp image (Full HD is probably sufficient, 4k would be a nice to have) , and most importantly quality sound - so he wants an external mic option.
Any thoughts on what to suggest, his target budget was <£500, but if that's totally unrealistic (which I suspect it is), then what's the cheapest he can get away with?
