Camera/Lens:
While you can record a great video with any late model phone today, Jake Sloan suggests upgrading to a camera. Jake uses the Sony A74, A7C and the ZV E10. These cameras perform better in low light, will provide you with more audio options, and provide more types of lens options.
When it comes to lenses Jake suggests picking a lens that does a couple of things: Choose something with a versatile focal range (example: 17-28, 20-40, 17-70, 11-20, 28-200). Make sure the lens is wide enough so you can hold it and talk to it, but also long enough to not feel super far away from your subject. Lastly, Jake says you will need a lens that has an aperture of at least 2.8 or lower for low light situations.
