Best Video Camera For Youtube - Kodak Zi8 and Canon 600D

Hi! It's Tyrone Shum from Outsourcinglive.

Comand welcome to the dedicated channel where I teach you about how to outsource your videos.

Now, a very common question that people arealways, always asking is "What camera shall I use?" Because once you've recorded yourcontent like what I'm doing right now, you're going to have to send it over to your videoeditor.

So what is that's really, really quick and easy and also what is very efficient tobe able to get across to them.

And there's really two options.

One, is touse a very basic camera for people who are on a budget which I'm going to share withyou shortly.

Or two, use a little bit more advanced camera which is the current one thatI'm using right now to record on.

And both is really dependent on your budget and alsodepending on the quality of the video that you want to get out there.

Obviously the more you pay for a particularcamera, the better the quality you're going to get but it won't break an arm and a leg.

All right so the first one that I've beenusing for quite some time before I actually upgraded to this camera that I'm currentlyrecording on is a Kodak Zi8 camera.

This is a very nice, very thin and very light camerathat I've been using and I had a 32GB card in here to be able to record all my high definitionvideos.

Now the reason why this is a great camerais one, it has an external microphone which you can just plug in onto the side right overhere.

I don't know if you can see it actually right here but basically you just plug inthat condenser mic which is I'm going to talk a little bit more about that but plug thatstraight in, mount that into a tripod and then hit the remote to record where you canget a separate remote and you're up and away.

That's exactly what I did for quite a longtime.

When you have look at a lot of my videos, I had at least about almost 100 videos thatI recorded using the Kodak Zi8 camera.

And it's a great camera because it records inhigh definition and the video files are quite small in comparision.

So that's - that's what I would recommend.

I noticed that a lot of other people also recommend the Flip Mino, but unfortunatelythe Flip Mino doesn't have any of the external mic plugin unless you want to spend extramoney but this is a really good budget camera that you can pick up.

You can buy from Amazonor eBay or anything like that and I'll make sure I'll put a link down below so that wayyou can check it out directly.

So that one is very good because you can uploadeasily, send to your video editor and he'll be able to do it straightaway.

Now the second option which is a little bitmore advanced and also too, it records very, very high quality and you can see just fromthe recording is called the Canon T3i Rebel.

And I'm not going to take the credit thatI found this.

This was actually recommended to me by my good friend Gideon Shalwick fromGideonShalwick.

Com and he uses a little more advanced camera which is the next model upbut for me, I'm happy with this one because this one has been really focused on allowingme to record videos.

And just again, it does have an external mic so the great thing isI can plug this mic that I've got on clipped on me straight into the camera and start toshare with you.

So what I'll do is I'll put the link belowbut it's called the Canon T3i Rebel which is an SLR camera and it allows you to be ableto record well, videos up to at least 12 minutes or so then after that you can edit it fromthere.

Now, one word of caution, these cameras theseparticular Canon cameras record very, very large file and there's little trick that I'mgoing to share in the future video on how to be able to get this sent over to your videoeditor in a smaller format and I think apparently right now it records up to about 300MB perminute so if you're going to do a 10-minute video, it's going to be about 3GB which isquite big.

Whereas in comparison, the Kodak Zi8, for about a 5-minute video that I usedto record, it will only be about 200-300MB so it's a fraction of that size so you justhave to take that in consideration when you're working with you and outsourcing it over toyour video editor overseas.

All right so yeah, these are really the twocameras that I highly recommend.

Make sure that whenever you're getting a camera, you'llalso get a lapel mic which is what I'm currently holding right now, you can sort of see iton me.

But basically it's just a mic that just clips onto you and plug it straight intoyour camera and it gives you much, much better quality of sound.

And you can pick up these for like $30 orso from like Dick Smith or Tandy store and that's what I've done.

Okay so yeah, hopefully this video has helpedyou there.

If you've got any further questions, feel free to leave your comments down belowand I'll be more happy to answer them but these are one of the two the cameras thatI've been using for quite some time and I - I cannot just - I cannot say how great theyare because they're just - brilliant.

So give it a go, check it out and let me know whatyou think.

All right, thanks so much for watching this.
