It's a known fact that we can never expect the best output without the best ingredients. Similarly, even in film making, the features of the camera used plays an important role in achieving the best. In order to the best, one have to invest the best which is not generally possible in case of SHORT FILMS. So, it is a wise step to choose the best camera which gives the best quality at the reasonable price.
First of all, before going to the list of the cameras, first we'll try to know a bit about the 2 popular terms which we come across and they are, SLR and D SLR.
what are they???
SLR camera : This is the short form of "Single-Lens Reflex camera." Here, a mirror and a prism system is used which facilitates the photographer to view the image which he wants to capture through the lens which is not happened in the viewfinder cameras. So, here the photographer will be more accurate on what he is shooting and how the output would be. where as in the other pathfinder cameras, this can't be achieved and so, there will be a bit of difference between the photo and the reality.
D SLR Camera : This is the short form of " Digital Single-Lens Reflex camera." In this digital camera, both the optics and the mechanisms of SLR camera are combined with the digital image sensor. Primarily, there will be a difference in the reflex design scheme of the D SLR cameras when compared to the other digital cameras. In recent 2000s, there is a wide replacement of SLR cameras with D SLR. As per the survey of 2014, D SLR remained as the most common interchangeable lens camera in use.
BEST SHORT FILM CAMERAS
Generally, for feature and high budget films, the cameras which are presently in use are RED and ARRI.
But, while coming to the short films, the capital is low and the use of a costly camera is not suggested. So, according to the survey done by interviewing number of short film makers, it was known that
SLR and D SLR cameras are used according to the effort they can make.
Here are the few best cameras which are the best for making low budget films.

Note : It may be dramatic to say. But it is true that, an efficient "eye" of a human being is much more talented than an efficient camera. The output always depends upon the vision of the photographer primarily which can bring the best with a little. So, it is important for a film makers and the photographers to know the techniques and the methods of using the cameras as creative as they can.
