From the 3 cameras you listed which 1 would you use?

I would be using my own camera of course, which is outside of their budget.  But aside from that, if I had only your aunt and uncle's budget and had to use a camera within that budget range for this project, I may prefer to use another camera. I actually want to recommend two more cameras.

I would use either this or the JVC I recommended earlier, and between these two I would use the NX100 because it has a bigger sensor.  Though I've used camcorders before I prefer having a top handle like the ones the NX100 or the JVC has.  Easier to hold the camera for low level shots.  And only these two cameras from (five cameras now) what I have recommend have dual XLR mic inputs.

 

The JVC, NX100 and G60 have similar sensor sizes, smaller than the ones on the NX100 and AX100 which have 1" sensors.

 

The Sony AX53 and AX100 are the only ones that record 1080p120 fps for slower slow motion than what can be achieved with 60fps recording.  I mean 60fps time remapped down to 24fps can produce nice slow motion, but for dance movements I imagine 120fps converted to 24fps would be even better.

 

On second thought, just choose between the FDR AX100 and the HXR NX100.  Forget the other three cameras.

You're welcome. And as I said, if you have anymore questions just PM ShadowCaptain, Dredgy or myself.  I work professionally as a freelance DP while Dredgy (maybe also works freelance) and ShadowCaptain has done a lot of research and films stuff for their YouTube channels and other things.  So we have knowledge and experience to help out.  We have real world experience.

Half knowledge and arrogant.

This pretty much explains why he always reacts with insults to criticism.
