When I first saw that question, I read it as "Good video camera for under 00 for filmmaking?" LOL! I was thinking "nothing good is for free!" I would recommend the Canon EOS Rebel T2i http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/slr_cameras/eos_rebel_t2i_ef_s_18_55mm_is_kit I've used it, and now I really want one! And considering how cheap it is! Just look at the quality! http://www.vimeo.com/search/videos/search:Canon%20Rebel%20T2i/26f39d79/sort:plays/format:thumbnail

Sorry your not going to get anything, not even second hand with HD and tapeless, there are no tapeless "professional" or "prosumer" cameras for that sort of money, if you add 2 or 3K to that you may stand a chance. For a $1000 have a look at a good secondhand Canon XL1s or XL2 they are standard definiton (tape based), but offer fantastic quality. RR

I think 60D is US$1000 exactly, otherwise, 600D is appx $200 cheaper.
