    I was wondering what peoples recommendations are for a decent camera to just shoot some b roll footage.
    Would like to it to be 4k if possible.

    Thanks Duane

    what is your price range and what features do you want? mic input? headphone input? ibis? I’ve always felt the dmc-g7 was a good value for 4k video at $500. not too far behind the bigger brothers. missing a few features, but still, 1/4 the price at similar video quality is hard to beat!
    with a isk cm-20c $30 supercardiod microphone that sounds like a $100 mic and a field audio recorder phantom powered Tascam DR-60D $199, you can have amazing video and audio for the fraction of the price.

    Audio isnt much of a concern if any. Just something I can put on a stationary tripod and capture a few minutes of video at a time. Something that its possible to get good day and night(low light) footage with. Ill checkout the dmc-g7. thanks
