I video with a HD Canon HF100 with a Rode Video Mic. To me however, the video camera is only about 30% of getting good footage.  A tripod and a remote to operate the zoom when a turkey is up close is a must for me.  The next thing is the format in which you render the video in.  For youtube, you want the smallest file with the best quality. 

Here is a video taking last year with the camera below.  In HD it looks really good.

 I wish the Canon GL2 was High Definition.  It's a great camera with lots of features, just not HD.  Would like to get a new one, but spent a good bit on this one about 8 or so years ago, and haven't wanted to bite the bullet and buy a newer one.

I got a canon Vixa. G10. My biggest problem is my lack of software to handle HD files.  I have software to make dvd's and it looks awesome.  When I posted online, the video quality decreased dramatically when the files were converted.
