I have blisters on my fingers.  Six weeks of no playing is enough to completely lose your calluses.  I forgot how painful it is to build them back up.  We did love our time in Spain and Portugal though.  

My Flip video camera finally bit the dust after eight years on my channel.  So, now I need to upgrade and I am looking for some recommendations from my subscribers on a higher quality recording system without breaking the bank.  I've almost convinced myself to buy the Zoom H5 recorder.  It seems simple enough.  Then I need to get a camera to hook it up to.  I'm still looking at cameras.  I'd prefer not to have to sync an audio file with a video file if I can help it.  I know with the H5, you can hook it into a camera's "mic" input and bypass the camera's mic.  The H5 also has a dedicated headphone jack.  I can also try some of the mics I have like a Rode NT1-A, a Shure SM57, and an EV PL11.  I'd like to keep my budget around $700 if possible.  That may be asking a lot.  Hopefully the new recording equipment will benefit everyone and you will be able to hear the Bassman amps in all of their glory.  I have them dialed in right now for the live versions of Bleeding Heart from the Fillmore East and Royal Albert Hall concerts.  That will be my first video on my new equipment.   

I'm looking forward to any recommendations on a good, simple recording system.

UPDATE:  I am now considering the TASCAM DR-100 MKIII.  It seems to be a superior unit with great features.  Thank you rcolang1.
