KwackerJack

I am looking to get a starter drone with a camera...are the below any good or can you recommend anything for the €200.00 mark.
I do fly model fixed wing, however have never flown a drone!!

The one thing I can say is that the cameras on many of the cheaper drones have an extremely large field of view, so you're going to have the fish-eye type look to any images or video you take.

In terms of what drone, all I have experience with myself is DJI, so it would be the Phantom 3 Standard, but this is three times your budget: http://www.radiocontrolledshop.ie/camera-drones-rtf/7108-dji-innovations-phantom-3-standard-ireland-6958265128073.html?search_query=dji+phantom+3+standard&results=27

It might be worth keeping an eye out for a second hand one, or even maybe getting it from the UK which could be a lot cheaper.

A mate of mine has some kind of Parrot drone, which he says is pretty good and I think was somewhere between 200-300 quid.

My Goal is the DJI at some point. However I would like to start off on something smaller and cheaper just as a precaution  
Can the camera direction be controlled separate on the DJI Standard?

Separate to the drone itself? No, you need to turn the drone to pan the camera, because otherwise you'd just see the legs of the drone :P
