I have also just purchased a sound desk and mic to get better control over the audio for videos and I also use a DSLR camera now for videoing a Nikon 3200 (thanks to Lithgows advice on the camera)
for video editing I use corel videostudio pro and this is a paid program. if you have windows you can always just download windows movie maker
