Looking for a camera to take pictures/ record video while hunting

Would like to keep around $400 if possible, but can go up if necessary (I know nothing about cameras)

-would like enough zoom to be able to identify points out to 50-75 yds.
-would prefer slow motion capabilities to record shots (most will be bow hunting so don't need super big zoom here)
- decent low light pics
-easy to use (I'm camera illiterate)

Basically Just want to be able to take pictures of deer at 50 yards without having to hold my phone up to binocs and film without tying my phone up the entire time.

I think there is a long camera thread on the Nerdery board. What you want is gonna be much more than $400
Let's go, Brandon!

If you can find one of these at government surplus I think the camera in it will work for you.

If you're looking for an independent device (not just a doodad to run through your iPhonr), Sony ZV-1 is a little more than you're looking to spend but might fit the bill.

900mm digital zoom is prettty good. Throw it on auto and increase iso when necessary. Shooting low light is tricky so you might need toread up a little.

the biggest thing for me was being able to bluetooth to the camera and download the pics/videos straight to my phone.
