What's a good video camera for recording singing/dance videos?

What's a good video camera for recording HD singing/dance videos? I sing and dance, but I feel that my iPhone wouldn't really be good enough to do the job. What's a good video camera under $400? Also, what's a good video/movie editing program?

I'm a dancer too! You could buy any Canon camera, I currently have Canon T4i BUT that is in the 8-900 range.

You can get a:
-EOC Rebel T3 for under 400.
-Photoshot SX50 HS
-Sony Alpha ILCE-3000

If that doesn't work for you, check more online.

It depends on your definition of "good". My definition defines a "good video camera" as one with a lens diameter of 65mm or larger, an imaging chip or imaging chip system of 1/3" or larger and manual audio controls that are on the outside of the camcorder… Generally, when the camcorder has all this, the manual zoom and separate manual focus rings on the lens barrel along with a BUNCH of other controls on the outside of the camcorder appear.

Examples:
Sony HDR-FX1000
Sony NEX-EA50UH
Canon XF300
Panasonic AG-AF100

I like Final Cut (Apple). For the Windows environment, Sony Vegas and Adobe Premiere work great - assuming your computer hardware has enough CPU horsepower, RAM and LOTS of available external hard drive space to deal with the video these camcorders capture…

If your definition of "a good video camera" is different from this, please let us know what that definition is so we can provide a response useful to you.
