Hi,

What camera should I buy for ENG shooting when I need high FPS? Actually, what I need is an Arri Amira(when it comes) but it will probably be far too expensive for what I can afford. My maximum price is about $5000, and I'm willing to buy used. What would you recommend me to buy?
 
if you want to shoot over 60fps the only camera would be a Sony FS700 you get 240fps 1080p and 480fps 720p or very close
 
You forgot the little brother FS100 can do Full HD 60p saw somewhere can boost to dubbel with slow quick motion function. But at least in your price range and still money left for a metabones speedbooster to get extra stop of light onto the sensor.
 
FS100 is a bargain for sure... but if HE means by High FPS somethigh higher than 60fps maybe the fs100 would not be enough. for 99% of the stuff I do the FS100 do the same as the fs700 (apart of the integrated ND filters)
 
Your prices must be very low over there - the FS700 is about $12.000 and the FS100 is about $7000 in my country.

I think I might be going for a Canon XF305. It's not really a highspeed camera I know, but at least it does 720p, 50fps, and is available on the used market for about $3500. I will then borrow a high-speed camera when needed :)
