Need camera for cinema classes

Tools    





Hello everyone,
I will begin my photography and most importantly cinema classes. Those classes obviously require cameras and my question is which one should I get. My budget is very slim. I was thinking used under 400$. Do you have any recommendation.



No idea. There are features shot entirely on iPhones these days so I'm not sure how important a specific camera is anymore?

I would really recommend tracking down a website/Reddit thread of people who are filmmakers.

Honestly, there are also many filmmakers on Twitter, including some big names who are willing to talk shop.

I would think about asking your question and making your budget limitations clear. Also think about what your priorities are in what you will be filming. Do you want something compact/more mobile? Is your priority the highest quality image?
