Getting a New Nikon..?

[Syk0tic]

So I'm getting rid of my old D80 and now I want to get another Nikon. So here's some quick questions..

Is there any newer Nikons that shoot 720 in 30fps or more?
Should I get a dslr or are point and shoots pretty much as good nowadays?
Why is the Nikon Coolpix L120 so cheap?
Nikon D3100 or Nikon D7000?

what is appealing about 720 at 30fps?

id wait, Nikon is about to change the game.. they filed like 2 sensor patents for upcoming cameras.. d800 and d4 full frame cameras are dropping this year hopefully.

I heard a 5100 soon too, so the d5000 and d3000 are garbage anyways.

I like my Panasonic for video

hes laughing because he shoots with the d80... if you havent seen his work, it's dope!

i think were getting hella lazy with new technology.. its really handicapping our abilities to be creative with what we got because we're too caught up in technology

all i know is that the camera that took the pics for the sig for chapo and Syk0tic did a great job!

I would just get an inexpensive video camera for video

Yeah I kind of wanted the best of both video and image quality but the video quality on dslr's still aren't that great. Maybe I'll pick up a Sony TX100V for the mean time. I miss my D80 already.

Thanks for everyones input.

uhh....i think that about 95% of film makers would disagree with you. i think if DSLRs have good enough video to shoot shows like House, then its good enough for people like you and me

I still think point and shoot has better video quality

show me a point and shoot video camera that is under $800 and can get footage that looks this good and it will be my next purchase

LIGHTING.

bro the 7d and 5d are great at shooting video thats why theyre filming tv shows with them and music videos. and i laughed cus you are buying a new dope camera and obviously dont know what youre doing

My D80 had a good run I had it for a real long time. Nothing wrong with wanting to upgrade.

You want a point and shoot? Panasonic gf2, youtube the videos. Just know you are limited. You want manual focus abilities, aperture, shutter speed, audio control and a lot of other shit.
