Most smartphones these days are equipped with a pretty good camera, which is super handy for vlogging. No matter how much smartphone cameras have improved over the years though, you're still going to be much better off with a regular video camera. For one thing, you'll be able to preserve your smartphone's battery if you aren't using it to film all the time. Another advantage is that you won't have to stop filming because the phone's memory is full. A camera stores your video on an SD card, which can easily be replaced when full. Video cameras typically have more options than smartphones when it comes to recording, not to mention that they have better resolution and are more comfortable to film with. Improve the audio quality of your vlog by investing in an external microphone. When you're done filming, you can edit your images using specialised software, for which you'll need various audio products such as headphones and an external audio interface.
