Do you need stereo sound?

Rode produce some very good quality mics for working on SLRs (mono and stereo). But, they are not cheap. You're looking at spending roughly €150-200 for a decent mic.

Most of the beginner model cameras can now do video too, and have enough quality video for what you want.

You may struggle to get all you need within your budget, especially when you add in memory cards, and stuff.
