    Hi Everybody,
    My mom and dad won't let me get a camcorder that is expensive. They think I won't use it, but I really would because I am obsessed with self-filming and bowhunting! Is there any recommendations of cameras that are a little cheaper that would still be good self-filming cameras in the woods. Also anything that I could tell my mom and dad to let me get it:lol:. Thanks for all the advice.

    The JVC GZ-R10BU can usually be picked up for under 200. Its supposedly water and dust proof so a good starter camera. You cam find them on eBay usually. You could ask for it as a birthday or christmas present. :tu:

    Also check out the Sony CX 220. They are around $200. I have done most of my videos on my channel with it!
