Well we shoot like every Friday and Saturday night down at Summerhill but the lighting is really bad so I was looking at getting a flash or some cheap lighting or something. Cause like ATM I’m just using like a camping torch but yeah wanting to upgrade. What do you reckon gambler. I’m looking at something in the 200-300 dollar range

I don’t know where to post this exactly but:

Gizmodo did a test with some sports cameras http://gizmodo.com/5919942/the-best-action-camera

I think the test itself was not that good but it’s a test nevertheless.

For video as well as stills?

You can save a bundle if just for stills.
