Default Camera Choice + Some other ?'s

Hello all. I venture from the world of overclocking to look into some digital video cameras.
What's a good camera for under $700(US)?
What's a good camera for under $1000(US)?
I'd like to get the Optura Xi or the Panasonic PV-Dv953, but they may be too expensive.
If i buy a used camera from ebay, can i still use the warrentee?
ALso, I dont care about still quality or camera size.
Is it ok to get cheap filters and lenses from ebay?
Like $50 for Digital Optics Wide Angle and Telephoto
AND
20 bux for crystal optics 3 piece filters
Also, what minidv tapes would you suggest?

Sorry about the US prices, I know this is predominantly British.
Thanks,
Cody
