I need to go to Best Buy today to buy a camera for work. I need to use it to take short videos of people talking, to display on Youtube.

Any suggestions? I’m think that $150-200 is the top of the budget.

(I hate having to buy technology on short notice . . . not enough time to research appropriately).
