best video camera for recording concerts image
Q. I need a camera to record my friend's and I. We make a LOT of really loud noise.. I also wanted to take this camera to a concert one day and (the Lady I want to see is really loud) I notice a bunch of people record concerts of hers on youtube and they pick up very good sound quality. It is really important that we get a non sensitive to sound video camera so we can create these videos for our facebook page and youtube channel. Maybe even school projects.
Answer
The issue is not whether a particular camcorder or camera that records video is "sensitive" to sound, but rather whether the audio gain can be controlled so when loud audio happens, the camcorder's automatic audio gain control is not overwhelmed resulting in static or muddy audio being recorded.
For consumer grade camcorders at the ow end, *some* have a setting called "mic attenuation". "Normal" audio is recorded with attenuation off. For loud audio, go into the camcorder menu and select Mic attenuation to be on.
As the camcorders get more expensive manual audio control get more granular - that is, rather than "loud or normal" it is more like a volume control. This is the best way to go... The Canon HF R series has the attenuator selection. The HF M and HF S series have 10-12 steps to control the audio level. Similarly priced Sony and Panasonic camcorders will have similar functionality.
Good luck not getting the camcorder confiscated during the concert... once they take it, the camcorder is gone forever. Hope you can afford that.

What is a good but not really expensive video camera to buy?
eK
I want to buy a video camera to make videos like stuff to put on you tube or record concerts, what is a good quality video camera I can get for not extremly expensive? (not over 125$)
Answer
I recommend the Fujifilm Finepix S1000fd, it's not actually a video camera but takes great video, and also awesome pictures.
