Q. I'm looking into getting one , just wondering if there's a good model that can take a good quality videos and cameras
A. One of the best model should be the EOS Rebel T3i. Featuring Canon’s newest DIGIC 4 Image Processor and an 18.0 Megapixel CMOS Image Sensor plus cutting-edge technologies like Full HD video recording, Live View shooting, Wireless flash photography and even a Vari-angle 3.0-inch LCD monitor, this camera has everything you need to get great results if you know what you're doing.
If you're looking to the basics of photography from aperture, shutter speed, and ISO to lighting and color quality, this is a great beginning camera.

Do any Officers notice a significant increase in the amount of people recording interactions with the police?

Confiscated cellphone at Times Square shooting reignites debate over photographing police
-
On Saturday, 51-year-old Darrius Kennedy was approached by police for reportedly smoking marijuana in Times Square, but the attempted arrest quickly turned violent. When the police came near Kennedy, he backed away and drew what has been variously described as a 6-inch or 11-inch kitchen knife. After pursuing Kennedy for seven blocks, officers eventually cornered him, ordering him to drop the weapon and then fatally shooting him. As dramatic as the event was, what's truly captured people's attention is the huge amount of video footage surrounding it.
Taking place in one of the most tourist-heavy parts of New York, the altercation was seen by a crowd of witnesses, many of whom followed the officers with DSLRs and cellphone cameras aloft and later uploaded the videos to YouTube or sent them to news outlets. Brazilian visitor Lincoln Rocha, who took one of the most iconic images, told the Associated Press that he was sure Kennedy would be shot by police once he drew his knife. "If they're going to kill him," Rocha said, "I want to take some pictures, I want to record it." Others had the same idea, to the point where the suspect and police in videos are usually less prominent than the crowds of photographers following them.
But the widely documented event has also reignited a long-running debate over the NYPD's treatment of photographers. According to The New York Times, Boston native Julian Miller was pulled aside by an officer after recording the incident, apparently including the shooting itself — something that was not shown in any released video. "His eyes got big when he saw the video," said Miller. "He went to go show his boss, and then they took my phone away." The officer apparently also told him not to speak to the media.
Police would not confirm to us whether they confiscated a phone and declined comment. If the video indeed captured the shooting, it's likely it could be used as evidence in an investigation, something that is allowed by New York law according to a 2009 directive. According to the Department of Justice's handbook on the subject, witnesses to a crime are also routinely advised not to speak to media, though they may choose to do so. For the police to view the video, they must get a search warrant, and it's unclear whether they are required to return the recording afterwards, as is the case in Washington, DC.
Unfortunately for the NYPD, this incident comes only a week after freelance photographer Robert Stolarik allegedly had his camera slammed into his face and was wrestled to the ground by police after taking pictures of an arrest. The NYPD charged Stolarik with obstructing government administration and resisting arrest, claiming he had struck an officer in the face with his camera and then "violently" resisted being taken into custody. Around the same time, the New York Civil Liberties Union condemned officers for blocking photography at Occupy Wall Street protests and reportedly posting mug shots of a couple who filmed stop-and-frisk encounters. The Department of Justice has issued a blanket rebuke of officers across the US who attempt to stop bystanders from filming them, but it's not at all clear that it's being followed.
As law enforcement actions go, the Times Square shooting was fairly unambiguous. Video evidence and witness testimony confirm that the suspect was both armed and resisting arrest — even if concerns have been raised about the use of deadly force — and officers have legitimate reason to want what's on Miller's phone if it corroborates those details. But after so many cases of police confiscating cameras or preventing recording without justification, it will be difficult to convince the public that they're acting in good faith this time around.

A. I'm sure it's a topic they are well aware of now. I'd bet money every chief of police in the USA has had talks with their officers about this very topic. It is putting a new light on law enforcement.
IMO it is a good thing. While I feel most officers are good guys trying to do the right thing. Some make mistakes and others are bad apples. The wide availability of cameras is now exposing the truth.
If cops have cameras on suspects and people. People can have cameras on cops!

Canon T2i, t3i or Nikon D3200?
Q. I am looking to purchase a new camera mainly for the purpose of video. I plan to make all my youtube videos and short films on it, so I'm not too focused on the still picture side. I wanted to go with the t2i originally but is the t3i worth the extra $100? Also, is the Nikon D3200 better than both of them (with video)? Thanks!
I am looking to see which is better in VIDEO not still pictures!

A. fhotoace always recommend Nikon cameras. When EVERYONE knows that Canon DSLR's outperform all of Nikon's cameras in video. Don't be entirely persuaded by his Top Contributor Title as most people and even he probably knows that Nikon has always been behind Canon in video. ALWAYS.

Have a look at that 2012 Article and see what it says about which brand should be used for video.
And if you want some real visual proof. Have a look at this comparison between the Canon Rebel T3i and the similarly priced and features Nikon D5100.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=zsLsOjeRkAg#!
Notice at the 7:30 mark when he has the T3i in his hand, he has to use the D5100 to record. Pay attention to the video and audio quality until the 8:18 mark where he has the D5100 in his hand and has the T3i recording. The Canon obviously has better video and audio quality.
I also read and heard in this comparison: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79v5QsM4kRQ
One of the first things the guy says is that the Canon is better than the Nikon at video. He says it in the comments as well.
If you need more proof than that then you should look up what other people think and I really hope no one says that Nikon has better video quality.
So the better choice is the Rebel T3i, no matter how new the D3200 is... Plus the vari angle LCD screen really comes in handy with video, but if you don't think it's worth the extra $100 then the T2i is basically the same thing.
If you need any more help, possibly finding the correct first lens to buy or accessories, just send me an email. Glad to help.
