The best bet would be to get an inexpensive camera that offers good quality, and is easy to transfer footage to the computer to edit. I would say the best choice is mini dv, I use a Canon mini dv camera and it only cost me £300 ish and its brilliant, when I burn my trials videos to DVD the quality is crystal clear, and it offers more than enough features for making trials videos such as good digital zoom etc. The only downfall is that many mini dv cameras dont have a usb port to capture from as footage from a dv tape when captured through usb is generally not very good. So you will need to make sure your computer has a firewire port on it to capture your footage better and more easily.
