Hi all,

I have been encouraged by many friends to record my bladesmithing (knife and sword making) projects and metal detecting adventures, and while I have done some research on-line, I still don't know what to buy.

I would like good picture and sound quality. I do not need special effects but I intend to do some editing and post my videos on youtube. My budget is around is Rs10000.

Thank for your help guys

I suppose for your sword making projects you could use any camera and stick it on a tripod but for the metal detecting recording, you would need one which has image stabilisers because you'll be on the move. The latter will be more expensive, maybe in the Rs15,000 - Rs20,000 range but if you want a camcorder that's going to be useful for both projects, then you're going to have to spend the money.

For image stabiliser : Canon VIXIA HF M500
Something with easy upload facility to YouTube : JVC Everio S GZ-MS100

Note that these are just pointers and you'll have to spend the time to read the specification and plan according to your budget and requirements.
