What is a good video camera for recording lectures? (it needs a wireless mic)

now a days smartphone having best camera and using that camera millions of people record best youtube educational videos. but still if you want to buy camera and mic then i would like to share few names. if you want to record indoor in front of computer then HD quality webcam is best Microsoft LifeCam Cinema Webcam Rs. 4,849 Sony HDR-CX405 Camcorder CameraRs. 20,990 Panasonic HC-W850 Camcorder Camera Rs. 49,999 Kodak PlayTouch Video Camera (Black)Rs 25,377 Ahuja AWM 520VL Wireless Microphone    Rs 2,590.00 Tie Clip Collar mic Lapel for CANON EOS DSLR 600D 6D 7D 650D 700D 60D 5D - 3.5mm1,150.00 for more detailed comparisions and tools information visit following https://learntoteachonlineormakevideotutorials.wordpress.com/tools-to-make-online-training/ https://learntoteachonlineormakevideotutorials.wordpress.com/2015/10/09/learn-to-setup-recording-studios-and-ways-to-record-videos-to-make-video-tutorials-and-elearning-courses-and-moocs/

Any digital camcorder will do. The better the low-light sensitivity, the better (presuming that you are indoors). The key will be the audio. No camcorder / camera is going to do a very good job of capturing the audio if it's more than 10' or so from the subject or if the subject tends to move around. There are various solutions to the audio issue: use a wireless lavalier mic (typical for this scenario), or use a digital recorder like a Zoom H-series or Tascam mike. You can get a relatively inexpensive lavelier system that connects to the microphone input on the camcorder [ see http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ns=p_PRICE_2%7C0&ci=15419&N=4291086004+4293345066&srtclk=sort ], allowing the presenter to wear a small transmitter connected to a microphone on their person and the receiver connected to camcorder to record the audio. The digital recorders have excellent sound, but if the speaker moves about, it will be obvious. Also, they will require you to sync the audio and video after the fact (not hard, but an extra editing step).

A lot of it is going to come down to your own experience with a camera. Do you for instance know how to focus, zoom, set IRIS, depth of field and the other aspects of photography? If you do then a DSLR or Mirrorless camera would be a good option. Sound does tend to be a problem though with those so you might want to record sound separately into a Zoom or Tascam recorder connected to a lavalier microphone. If your camera skills are less advanced then you might prefer something that does all the technical trickery for you like a point and shoot, or a camcorder. Both of these now have very good lenses capable of taking sharp pictures with excellent quality and they usually cost less than the ‘proper’ cameras with separate lenses. They also tend to have better sound quality although personally I think recording sound separately is a better idea. Unless you can answer those questions I can’t really recommend a specific camera and neither should anyone else. What I can do is show you all the different issues and techniques you should look as in order to get to that point. Here is a video that discusses how to choose a camera and looks at the different options. It will help you.

This is really simple to do, assuming all you really want to do is post your lectures on YouTube as a documentation of the lecture for posterity, for your students, or for yourself. A single locked down camera on a tripod and inexpensive wireless lavaliere microphone will do the trick, but as others have posted, it will be boring and not much of a revenue generator. If you're looking to make your lectures watchable and profitable then others have already posted good advice. I'll stick to the assumption thus is just for documentation. Camera. I like Sony a lot. You need a basic camcorder that has a mic in jack. This is a good one: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1211907-REG You should get a tripod, but a basic $30 tripod will do for this. Nothing fancy is needed, and all the $30 tripods are pretty much crap so get whatever you like as I have no recommdations. Then you need a basic wireless lavaliere mic. Here's a not terrible one: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1048786-REG The wireless mic is really your weak spot, where you will find failure most of the time. You don't start getting into good wireless systems until you start spending about $400. Lows cost models like the Azden, Samson and Poison cut corners, starting with lower power transmitters. But don't think that means longer battery life - wireless mics eat batteries like candy. Keep extra ones in hand and swap it out if the sound is at all low, distorted or noisy. In fact, unless you have someone wearing headphones monitoring your recording you will have no idea if the sound is good until you review your video. I don't know how critical these recorded lectures are to you, but if they are you might want to invest in a really nice wireless system that you can have some confidence in, or get an intern to run the camera and listen to the audio. And if you don't have someone listening then at least change out the batteries every lecture. As a disclaimer let me admit that I have used Azden and Samson wireless kits and I like them but you can never assume that they're working. You have to monitor them constantly. Later, when I had a budget, I bought Lectrosonics and it was a huge improvement in reliability, range and quality, but i still always had someone on headsets monitoring audio. Even a $1200 kit can dropout every now and then.
