Recently published articles for Final Cut Pro for Mac:
Hoping to find a $600-$900 camera that is Final Cut Friendly. (I can spend more but would love not to.)
I'm absolutely overwhelmed by the websites.... Would any of you be willing to be my hero?

PS. The only thing I MUST have is:
• external audio in. Would love a decent zoom too.
• SD or Hard Drive storage
• Great zoom would be fab.
I would recommend Canon Vixia HF G20. I have the predecessor (G10) which works very well. It's a little over your price range at around $1100. But that is quite a reduction from the $1500 I paid for the G10 when it first came out.
One thing to note is while it excels at video, it does so at the expense of taking stills.
IMO, the first paragraph of this storypretty much sums up why the BMD should be part of the camera conversation. Some of the clips that have posted on line to demonstrate what this little cam is capable of: http://nofilmschool.com/2013/07/blackmagic-pocket-cinema-camera-footage-hook/

The BMD is no doubt 'a beast' - but 2.000$, all my 5 cams in my box together are not that pricey. Plus, you need excellent 'glas', or better: glasses! to make any sense of such a thing.
And for sure: no point'n shoot 😀
… records in CinemaDNG or proRes422HQ … I just try to imagine, how many SDcards I'd need for an average day on the soccer field ...... 😁😁😁
Best "pro-sumer" camera for FCP?
