What kind of gear should I buy?
That's one question that will pop up as soon as you decide to start a YouTube Channel on your own.
And if you look on the world wide web you will find dozens of answers to that question.
At the beginning use what you already have!
If you have a camera, great, but if the only thing that can record is your smartphone – use it.
Most smartphones nowadays have amazing cameras and will give you a good enough quality for people to not run away immediately.
But! You need good lightning and audio!
At the beginning try to film using sunlight. It’s not the easiest since the weather changes and you will need to find a good place, but it will make you video quality much better than using your ceiling light.
Trust me.
But if there is one thing you should buy than it’s a mic.
There are different kind of microphone but if you are on a budged, I would recommend a lavaliere microphone to start with.

Editing tools
In my option editing is one of the most important things. And the one that’s the most fun.
There are apps where you can edit on your phone, but I would recommend, if you have an laptop or pc, to use a software.
Mac users have iMovie already installed, for windows you can try and check out some of those free programs that have been listed as the best free video editing software by shopify.
