Which is the best camera?

We all can say that there's no such thing as The Best Camera but again, we all have our own preferences. The problem is that even with our own preferences, we can't determine which is the perfect camera (at least on my point of view).

The first camera that I really had a lot of contact was the JVC HM100u. People usually say that it has a terrible image quality, something that I disagree in a certain level. That aside, the JVC camera is one that I got very familiar with, although I'm aware of its limitations.

Now I'm entering in the world of the DSLRs, with great image quality, more accessible price, and portability. However with the portability, it also comes the design made for still photography and this makes me forget constantly how to mess with certain options on the camera, not to mention the extreme difficulty to determine with your own eyes if your focus is correct or not.

Not saying that it is the best camera, but one that I had a brief but pleasant touch was the Sony FS-100U. I really liked its design: a mix of the JVC with the DSLRs in a simple and efficient way that made me find what I wanted in just one night with the camera. The only issue is the price, inaccessible for a film student. With that, it leaves the DSLRs as the “winners” of the competition thanks to the easy access.
