Need help finding a camera

[boydgrossii]

I'm not sure if this is the right forum section for this. Essentially, a buddy of mine was this epic runner, but then he got this hernia that needed surgery. Surgery went bad and he had this blood clot in his leg and he was given blood thinners to get it to go away. It didn't go away. So, he's not been able to run like he used to for a while and his doc told him that it was permanent.

I felt super bad for him as he's a super nice guy and running is his passion. He just got approved to get this vascular surgery done and he's super pumped, so he wanted to get a video camera to record his progress back into his running again. I wanted to help him find one, but video cameras aren't my forte.

What have you guys found that can withstand a little rain, sweat, etc. and keep trucking without any problems?

You'd probably get more help on another board. I'd help if I could, but I too know nothing about cameras.

How much you looking to spend OP? Do you want something that has a learning curve or just an all in one package?

not sure about video cameras but I use a Canon 5d Mark 2 DSLR. It takes great HD videos and is weather proof
