You might want to start with the "[What camera should I buy?] (http://www.reddit.com/r/Filmmakers/wiki/cameraguide)" guide in the sidebar. Sadly, although the guide is a useful starting point, it is admittedly a "work in progress" and is a little out of date. It does not, for example, include the latest generation of entry level cameras (to include the Sony A6000, Panasonic G6 and G7).
That said, it really depends on your budget. You can put together a beginner's filmmaking studio, for example, for less than $1000 [Referral Links]:
Camera and Support
Sound
Studio Lighting and Backdrop:
For background, you might want to consider green photographic paper instead of stands, crossbars and unwieldy sheets of muslin, as seen in [this video from Wistia] (http://wistia.com/learning/diy-office-video-studio):
For less than $1000, you'll be able to produce well-lit 4K content with decent sound and a stable image with smooth pans and tilts.
You will also have a basic chromakey studio with which to add special effects.
Here are some examples of what this camera can do:
Narrative
Documentary
Travel/Nature
Timelapse
Timelapse and Slow Motion
And here are a few examples from YouTube (please watch at 2160p and your monitor's highest resolution):
It's a pretty good still camera too: https://www.flickr.com/groups/panasonic-lumix-g7/pool/
In my view, this is the best still/video, large sensor interchangeable lens camera you can buy in this price range and a very good value for your money.
Hope this is close to what you're looking for - good luck with your filmmaking career - and best of the holidays!
The Rode is the way to go.
But I'd get this setup:

I haven't used that mic, but I've heard decent reviews about it. Depending on the type of video though, you may want the LAV mic, but it should work fine. If you're looking for something that will be completely out of frame you could go with the Rode videomic or videomic pro.
