Guys,

was looking for a decent camera and found sony nex3 and nex5k.
I need a camera for around 13k with full HD and  smooth video recording.

Any suggestions?

Check eBay.  Lots of cheaper options are listed.  Search Full HD keychain camera.  Even a $45 720p wide angle Lens D I got last month is readuly available. The seller eletoponline365 is reliable.  Here is a sample video:

HD19 ExplorerHD Full HD 1080p FPV Video Camera is a good alternative to gopro, I've see it in action, video quality is very good. Search for comparison video on youtube.

Great. explorer is cheap :D
available in India?

And keychain #16 is good but not professional and durable. I wont like to place that small thing on a 2axis gimbal :P

Great cam, you do FPV right? Is it difficult?
Did you make a gimbal for it?

Yeah bro it's difficult. Need practice, concentration and open place. My both cams are fixed no gimbal used.

Rahulvyas

Did you ever fly a hex? Is it difficult than the quad?
