I've been into filming and editing for about 3 years now and recently a friend that races a Baja Class 1 buggy wants me to do some work for him. He has told me I can buy whatever equipment needed so I'm curious being fairly new into filming what would be a good Camcorder setup for shooting outside, dusty environment, HD, something that can handle loud trucks and somewhat light in weight since races can last a while. Thanks
