Dennis, there are some good HD cameras for video that will not brake the bank.

Dennis, it depends on how sophisticated you want to get. You can use a web cam or a smartphone. Or you can get an actual videorecorder (they come in various prices). There are also some free programs that let you record your computer screen (powerpoint, web browser - anything on your screen really) and you just need a microphone/headset for the sound. A google search will bring them up and you can sample them. I've been using CamStudio. Maybe not the best, but a good starting point. Haven't gotten into a lot of editing yet so I have no recommendations there.

We've done some great videos lately with our Galaxy Note android phones. I'd say your smartphone is the new Flip, Dennis.

USe a solid DSLR platform. The lenses and lighting are equally if not more important and don't forget a fluid head tripod.

You can get a Canon that works remotely from your phone for under $500. Cowboy Lighting systems start at $62 and an Audio Technica wired lavilier mic is about $25. Tripod about $25.

Is your vision of instructional video standing in front of recorder and chatting? No cuts, change of perspective, close up, not so close.
How about scribble or sketch morphing?
What about sound? Camera mic, wireless, voice over, soundtrack, multi-channel?
For most applications the smart phone can record all the source media. The real work comes after that.
I use PPE easysketch and based on site environment, SLR camera or cell.

If you have an iPhone or iPad, you have all you need. Check out YouTube for some great videos on the topic, just make sure you are watching the more recent ones.

I think it's your phone to be honest. Blast from the past with the 'Flip' lol. I'm sure if you google it here on AR, you'll get some good ideas. I've seen plenty of people rate their cameras for this.

Screenflow or Camtasia - unless you need to film something rather than use screenshots
