Youtubing in our day and age: Camcorder VS dslr VS hybrid

[Scrattle]

Hey guys

So I've been doing a bunch of vlogging, gameplay recording and so on... and so on. So I think it's about time I join the fast lane that is "talking in front of a camera". After looking into a bunch of camcorders and thought it to be medi-ocre quality I looked up what camcorders my fav youtubers use. Turns out they all use dslr such as the 600D.
I then found that the samsung nx1100 seemed to fulfill my requirements which is 1080P at 30 fps (or higher!) that will be used to shoot those standard talking / doing challenges in front of a camera. It means it will be a well lit environment I'll be working in as I have a bunch of lights in my "studio".
This camera is around 350 USD as this camera costs where I live (Denmark).
If you know a camera that will be better for my needs and have similar or better quality that would be amazing. Features I see the nx1100 lacking that I'd be happy to have is a screen that flips so I can actually see my self; an optical viewfinder if it's a dslr as that's just better IMO.

Anyway. I think I painted a quite good picture of what I need. So if you know just the camera for me (maybe at a lower price

) that'd be greatly appreciated!

So far I think I'll be recording audio on my blue yeti USB mic on a laptop and then syncing it up later.

Basically I'm aiming for the quality a 600D can delivier or similar. Like you'll see Marcus butler, Zoe sugg, Joe sugg and so on have in their vids.

Dedicated Camcorder: Canon 32GB VIXIA HF G20 Full HD Camcorder 8063B002 B&H Photo
60D with kit lens: Canon EOS 60D DSLR Camera Kit with Canon EF-S 18-135mm 4460B004

Good quality camcorder cheaper than the 60D.

Hey
Thank you for the quick reply. Those are very expensive compared to what I found thou. I can find the 60D used for a price I guess I can go to. But I'd rather find something within the stated price-range in OP
