Nowadays RED is one off most popular cameras in cinema makeing. This year 16 oscar nominated movies (for example Social Network) where captured with RED cameras.

Cheapest body RED ONE mysterium-x costs 25K, it can film in resolution up to 4,5K (Full HD 1920x1080 is 1K), 59.97 fps, and with color sampling ratio 4:4:4 (AVCHD in DSLR cameras and most handycams got 4:2:0), so picture with RED one is closest to reality and have the biggest oppertunities to collor it in editing process.

Talking about bike and skate videos

i found aout that many riders and skaters still like to shoot with cameras like sony vx1000, wich shoots in DV quality, in mini DV format. BUT for all who where using this or similar cameras where used one tipe of lenses century mark 1 fisheye, everyone said that is what you need for skate bike videos. but some are started to use new tehnologies like canon 5D mrk2 or canon 550d so it is depending of yourself what to choose clasiic mini DV camecorder or new DSLR photo cameras with Full HD quality.
