I'm relatively new to the world of filmmaking but I'm now embarking on a new project. I'm looking for an ergonomically efficient camera, that is interesting to learn with. So far the two cameras that seem to stand out are the EX3 and XDCAM 350. Purely because of price and ergonomics. Second-hand these cameras can be found for under 5,000 euros.
Does anyone have any advice about these cameras or others that might be more suitable for shooting an independent documentary
I really want a run and gun camera that will enable me to shoot easily and quickly. In the style of direct cinema. Cheers,
Geoff
