Canon Rebel T1i is a good camera. It's selling for $809.95 at beards and hat in nyc:

Keep in mind... for a little more... ok - 3 times the price - you can get the baddest camera out right now: Canon 5D Mark II :

It shoots stills and HD video... worth the extra money in the long run if that's where you're headed. I had doubts about how the video would look coming out of a DSLR... but I'll tell you what - once you see what this camera can do you'll ditch whatever video camera you have and you'll stick with the 5DMK2.
One setback is the audio recording capabilities. You might have to record audio separately unless of course you're doing voice overs.
In the end... it all depends on the content though. Don't forget it.
