Answer 1

The camera used will be around $3,000-New about $3,7000 to $4,000. Why this camera? Sure it takes amazing video but the lens' are a tad touchy and are very expensive to upgrade. If I was hiring a cameraman, I would rather see what you could do with an older camera than a XL2. If you can tote around a cheaper model and get your point across and express what your seeing through the lens and I can connect with it, then you'd be as good as anyone else even for a 17 year old.
