What camcorder would be suitable for producing wedding videos?

The very least I'd even think about going with is something with a relatively good lens, good manual controls, and controllable audio inputs. I've thought about using, for example, something like a Canon HV40 as a second or backup camera on paid gigs, but that's as low as I'd even consider going. Even then, I take my HV30 along as a "use in an emergency only!" backup on paid shoots I use my DVX100B on.To make some money, you have to spend some. If all else fails, consider renting or borrowing pro equipment. Or, buy demo or refurbished pro equipment - my demo DVX100B has been a workhorse of an entry-level pro camera through my entry into the world of video. Big retailers like BH do this, as well as lesser known ones like Omega Broadcast in Austin, TX.Explore all your options, and resist the urge to cut corners in places where your quality will suffer. With all due respect, sacrificing quality is an amateur move, and not one to be taken lightly - it's certainly not one that people who pay you will take lightly. Do not settle for a camera that will cripple the skills you have acquired in preparing to go out on your own. href='https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110311024526AAmDGSA' - https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110311024526AAmDGSA -
