Grades of Videos Cameras Compared

4  comments

You can divide all the videos cameras on the market into four basic categories.  This video tutorial explains and compares the four different grades of video camera. The differences and similarities might surprise you.

There are pros and cons to each level of camera.  What works great for one person would be inadequate for the next. I love them all of course, just depends on what I am doing at the moment.

Believe it or not, picture quality is not necessarily the largest distinguishing factor between the different levels of camera.  Ease of use and durability are actually what sets them apart, generally speaking.

What level of camera you buy and use depends on these factors:

  • How much effort you want to go to
  • How artistic you want to get
  • Size of budget
  • Whether you need portability or instant streaming capability
  • What level of resolution quality your projects demand (Sometimes lower is actually better when it comes to online video.)

Watch this free video tutorial from Video Production Tips to discover the best uses, pros and cons for each grade of video camera.

  1. Please could u help me understand in details the role of a camera in making a documentary

  2. Well, a camera is used to capture all the video and audio. Today’s camcorders are very self contained. They are not only the camera but the record mechanism and audio recording too. You can do some kinds of video without a camera, such as screen capture and slide show videos using still pictures. But generally speaking, if you want to make a video you start with a video camera.
