Sony
4.1
(16)
"The Sony produces high quality 10-bit 4:2:2 LOG images in 4K/120p slow motion, has good in-body stabilization and best-in-class autofocus."
"4K isn’t just about a more detailed image. It gives you more options in post with cropping, allows you wiggle room for stabilisation and provides less noise."
"Sony FX3 is specifically designed for video work, including travel & handheld usage."
"Sony ZV-E10"
"The A7III shoots 4K and renders in 1080p beautifully, with great autofocus and picture profiles."
"The a7C is a great hybrid camera with true 4K capabilities and full-frame features."
"Cheapest option with great performance."
"Budget prosumer camera with excellent features."
"Offers good autofocus and dynamic range."
"This setup is plenty capable to learn with & should be easy to sell later if upgrading."

"One of the LUMIX cams, with an Elgato Camlink"
"Shoot in 4k, render 1080p. GH5 with cine4k is perf. Get a speed booster attachment and get the sigma 18-35 lens."
"I have the big brother GH5 and works really well."
"The Panasonic gh7 was just released. It is the first of its line to have phase detection AF."
"The Panasonic G7 is a great option for 4K video, especially with the 25mm prime or 12-35mm zoom lens."
"There are plenty of budget-friendly 4K camcorders available for those unfamiliar with camera usage."
"Good autofocus and 10 bit 4:2:2 4K video."
"I'd say a good bang for your buck contender would be picking up a used Panasonic G85."
"Look at Panasonic’s LUMIX GH5, G9, and S5 models."

Canon

"Canon 90d + sigma 18-35mm for what you’re doing no doubt."
"It is under $1k and I believe it can shoot 4k video."
"Eos rebel 7 and the canon 6d are great options"
"Personally - I really like the canon m6 mk2- it’s like a 30mp 5d mk3 with great autofocus in a small package."

GoPro
4.0
(4)
"Love my Hero 10, films in 4K. Probably discounted now."
"When it works, it allows for some great footage underwater."
"I personally am a GoPro user for over ten years now. And it is the M3 of action cameras."
"The GP10 overheats quickly in colder waters, limiting its use for extended periods."

"The IPC-Color4K-T offers better value than the 5442, with full color recording all night due to its larger image sensor."
"The 5442 is great value for the money, priced between $160-190."
"It's a turret camera instead of a bullet and its 2K instead of 4K. But for less than $200 you won't get better performance."
#6
Amcrest
4.3
(3)
"I've been very happy with the Amcrest IP8M-T2669EW-AI. It's PoE, stable, and has the ability to distinguish vehicles and humans."
"I have been using Frigate with Amcrest 4K. Working really well with the Coral chip."
"The T2599EW is a bit cheaper, but doesn't have the AI, so any motion will cause it to record."

"Amazing lens quality and awesome IR capability for very low light conditions."

Blackmagic Design

"Black magic 6k pro is $2500. And you aren't going to find anything with better image quality for the price."
"If your budget is to include lenses, the Black Magic 4k is $1300. M43 lenses are very affordable."

"I tried 5+ different 4K cameras and finally chose this one as the best."
"OBSBOT Tiny 2"

DJI

"Compact travel vlogging camera with smooth stable footage in 4K and a 20mm lens, great for scenery."
"The new DJI Action is small with 4K capabilities but has a limited battery life."

"The Fuji has 4K/60p, a built-in USB-C webcam function for streaming, and solid in-body stabilization."
"Still use my xt-3 and get payed decent money for footage coming out of it."

"Cheapest cinema quality with pleasing skin tone rendition and highlight rolloff."

"If you're OK with a camera that is just OK.... the IP8M-2493EB-V2 will fit your needs aside from the audio."
