As the title say I am looking for some advice

I want to make some short video clips for our race team, more of a what happens in and around the pits, we already have go pro's for track footage

I have a budget of about $2000

Need some help/advice on what would be better a DSLR or proper video camera. I have read lots of reviews but am looking for real life advice

I think I have narrowed the choice between the following :

Cannon G30 Video camera
7D or 70D Dslr

The advantage I have with the DSLR is that I already have some pretty decent lenses, but have read that when filmimg the mic will pick up the sound of the focus motor

All advice welcome and needed

Thanks
