I shoot alot of bands in low-light club/bar lighting. Looking for sugestions for good low-light video cam under $1000.00 usd .

You won’t find one for under $1000.

My suggestion would be to use a camera light.

I use a Sony VX2100 which I think is rated at 2 lux and that is a $2000 camera.

I’ve looked for a lower priced low light camera but the trap that you’ll fall into when looking at the specs on the consumer grade camcorders is that they will be rated at a certain lux… but only at their most extreme settings. Usually the setting that can never be used. Like when the shutter is left open and everything blurs. Sure it is bright, but completely unusable.
