Hi guys, I've always been having the intention to post here to seek help but I've just been too busy.

Basically I'm a guy who is really into video making (and vlogging), however 80% of all the video "projects" I tried doing (most of which are indoors) always end up getting binned because of how unsatisfactory my image quality is, I really want to improve my game.

Okay here's a list of my equipment:

1) Canon 700D w/ 18-55mm STM kit lens (magiclantern used)
2) Zoom H1 with noise cover (that fur thing) for audio
3) 65W ring light (sample of the video I shoot DOES NOT have ringlight turned on, at the time of shooting I haven't receive it yet)


raw footage and edited (by Premiere CC) looks about the same, in poor quality.

I always find my recordings to end up looking really blurry and with lots of.. artifacts? It's really been driving me crazy and I have been having the intention to save up and maybe change lens, but quite worried that even after changing lens it'll still persist.

Is this a limitation with the 700D or kit lens? Hoping it is the kit lens so maybe I can save up and get another lens.. or am I asking too much out of a 700D DSLR?

thanks!

SAMPLE VIDEO - Shot in 720p 60fps no ringlight (plz click on link below for a 1080p 30fps screenshot) I am sorry for the crude advertisement but this is the most recent YouTube video that I have with the problem that I am facing.



1080p SCREENSHOT WITH ringlight turned on (the quality looks a lot better than shot in 60fps 720p, but it is still blurry that I can't read the text on my shirt.)
