I am looking to buy a used smart phone with good enough video performance around $200 to use it eventually as video footage for a documentary. I will be travelling in regions where I will not be able to use my camera equipment. Anybody has some ideas? (Somebody told me about IPhone 8 Plus). Thanks for advise

Search on aliexpress or local.
Avoid too old iPhones.
Another options are Asus ZenFone 7 Pro - it is unique that you still have best camera for selfie.
Or Huawei P40 Pro.
But both can be more.
I can recommend you an Oppo Find X3 Neo with a Sony IMX 766 1/1,56" main sensor.
