Question by Raymond: Panasonic Lumix gh1 or canon t2i?
I’m looking to buy a new camera. I’m an Indie filmmaker but I am also looking to move into shooting still images too. I’m looking for a camera with the highest quality 1080p video at 24fps but that also takes great pictures. I’m also wondering which of the cameras has the easiest video to edit, meaning that the type of file, and how it may need to be converted that is easier, taking into account All of the above, which camera would be the best choice or do you have another option for me? (budget is around 1500$ maybe 2000$ at most)
