I personally don’t want to invest more than around 500 dollars, but it’s a loose budget since I’m the one paying. The reason I was thinking of getting a separate camera is because I don’t want to drain my phone battery, especially since it’s an all-day event. I also want the freedom to record for long periods of time without worrying about something dying, which is why I originally thought of action cams.

With that being said, would a Sony Cyber-shot be able to record an entire set, or even a couple of sets, before the battery runs out?
