Recommendations for Cheap Secondhand Canon Camera for HD Video

HollowEarth

Hi there,

Can anyone advise me of a good second-hand Canon camera I can use to shoot HD video.

I need autofocus, which I understand is not available on the old first generation Canon 7D which I have.

Thank you,

Matt

Greetings,

We need a budget to make recommendations.  

Are you looking to stay with a camera, or would you consider a dedicated video camera?

Thank you for picking this up.

It doesn't have to be a camera. I do have a good 15-85 ef lens.

Really, good HD video and low budget is my priority. Not really looking for a camera as such.

Greetings,

You still haven't provided an actual budget?

Ah. I apologise. I don't actually have a figure in mind - just low!

Under $500 for a second-hand camera for instance.

HollowEArth,

For a different reason, I happened to run across a Canon T100 in that price range. It offers Full HD at 30p and HD at 60p.

That's very helpful. Thank you.
