For the camera equipment, my group and I will be using a Canon EOS 60D, I gave the idea of this camera since I remembered my dad bought it a while ago, and it will be better to use than a regular iPhone. Moreover, I did get a brief understanding of it when my dad explained it to me while handing me the camera, but I don't think that will be enough to satisfy my demands on my project. So, I ended up doing some extra research about it to explore some extra interesting things about this camera and to help me and my group accomplish our goals with this project.
Furthermore, I not only did research on how to use it but also the specifications of the camera and what makes it a good camera (the technology that is inside the camera). The article states that the "Canon EOS 60D is a mid-range DSLR released in 2010 designed for photography enthusiasts and semi-professionals". This interesting thing about this camera is that even though it was released in 2010 it has 3K graphics and is paired with an "18-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor with DIGIC 4 image." Additionally, all of this means it is capable of making images with "great detail and sharp color accuracy", this is perfect for my project as we will need detailed cinematography. There is also an "ISO range of 100-6400 (expandable to 12800) which allows for versatility in many lighting conditions while the continuous shooting speed of 5.3 FPS is useful for capturing action shots." It is great that this is included because I was worried that the camera wouldn't be able to see what we are doing since our set is mainly in the dark.
Although an older mode, the EOS 60D is a good choice for beginners due to these specifications, as well as its ease of use. The battery life of this camera is reliable from the article's perspective, saying it has "several hours of shooting," which is great for me and my group. While newer cameras offer more quality and faster processing, my EOS 60D still is great since I didn't have to spend much getting it (since I already had it), either way, if I had to purchase it for this project I would since it's very budget-friendly.
