Helllo! Im looking to buy a new camera, decent picture quality, with a microphone ateast. Also i had no idea where to post this.

I live in australia, but im willing to buy from america if necasary!

My budget is under 300 dollars, I need the best price for quality! Also, someone i read that minidv is good, but most of the cameras ive looked have no mics.
I mainly want to film tricking and parkour.

Please don't give me shit, i have no idea about cameras, so only helpfull stuff please!

What exactly do you mean "with a microphone" ...cause to my knowledge, all minidv camcorders should have a built in mic in them... besides, you can always buy an external mic

i have a Casio EXP505, It has a 2hr battery. It runs off SD cards so no fire wire cables and other bullshit just drag and drop. I bought 2, 2.0 GB SD Cards (2hrs 12 min of footage) With my cam the total cost was like around 300 dollars.
