Canon

"I love my canon EOS R5 but I’m also a photographer, so that is what I use for my business."
"Photo cameras like Canon are versatile and can be used for both photography and videography."
"A DSLR like Canon T5i is great for beginners and offers Full HD recording."
"Perhaps look into a used Canon XC10."
"I think a good starter camera is the Canon M50."
"Shoots pretty well in low light."
"The T2i is cheap and almost a 7D."

"Check out the Sony RX100 VII. It’s small, zooms in far, and the battery is pretty long lasting."
"A camcorder is recommended over a DSLR for documentaries due to ease of use and better audio functionality."
"Sony zv-10, even with kit lens."
"Great quality setup for video, but not ideal for handheld use."
"Best low budget combination for Low Light. Don't buy. Just rent. Much cheaper."
#3
GoPro

"Perfect for action shots and run-and-gun filming."
"GoPro is of course the popular choice, but above your price range."
"A used gopro."
"The club footage was basically unusable."
"The GoPro is a great idea but too expensive for my budget."

"The Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera is the least expensive interchangeable lens camera that records to RAW or 10-bit ProRes with 13+ stops of dynamic range."
"The Pocket Cinema Camera 4K is pretty good and includes a License for DaVinci Resolve Studio, it's well within your budget."

Panasonic

"Retired now. I went back to a 10-bit, 4:2:2, 1920 X1080p Panasonic HP 300P for precisely getting back to a basic rig. More than enough."
"The GH3 is a great video/still camera with a built-in electronic viewfinder and 1080/60p frame rate for slow motion."
#6
Mobius

(2)
"A very small camera that comes in well under your budget, offering 1080p quality."
"I liked the Mobius camera; it doesn't seem bad at all."
