Question:Hi Gary, what is the best video camera in the price range of 50,000 TO 60,000 Indian Rupees?

Answer:Hi Sagar, thank you for your question. For the price range of 50,000 TO 60,000 Indian Rupees, we're talking about USD 1,100 to US 1,300.

In that price range you mentioned, we're probably looking at professional level camcorders. I can recommend a few models to you which I've come across as very good products capable of shooting amazing video.

The Sony HXR-MC50U
The Sony HXR-MC50U AVCHD Camcorder combines small form factor with professional design. It's a great professional video camera that allows you to capture 1920 x 1080 video at the full 24Mbps bit rate possible in the AVCHD format. There's also a powerful 10x wide-angle zoom lens and an ECM shotgun microphone, plus a large lens hood and a high-capacity battery for extended shooting times.

Panasonic AG-DVX100B
This is a camera commonly used for film and TV program production. The AG-DVX100B allows for simultaneous multi-camera recording techniques often used in video production. You also get remote focus and iris control for easier operation when mounted on a tripod. The image quality on this baby is very high and it offers 24P/30P Cinema mode, along with full manual operation.

Canon XH-A1
The Canon XH-A1 captures true 1080 High Definition resolution video and comes with a 20x Fluorite lens delivering outstanding resolution, contrast and color reproduction.

There's also a hybrid noise reduction system, a 2.8" Widescreen LCD and .57" Widescreen EVF for bright, high-resolution views.

The Super-Range Optical Image Stabilizer is amazingly effective, able to correct camcorder shake instantly. The camera has two sensors to reduce focusing time - even in low-light situations - and improve focusing performance on difficult subjects.

I hope the above has given you insight into the best video cameras in the range of 50,000 to 60,000 Indian Rupees. Hope you get the camera you're looking for!
