Which camera for jit.grab live capture?

Hello, a very simple noobish question.
What do you use for video capturing?I need to acquire a live video stream in jitter... a webcam is not enough quality for the work I need to do. More like a compact camera or a not so expensive DSLR...(?)
What would you advise for a cheap Camera? Which kind of connection is necessary to let the device appear in the jit.grab sources menu? Is there any other hardware (interface?) needed? I need a cheap but (semi-)professional solution... which will not cause latency and optical and color limitations of the HD webcam that i'm using at the present. Thanks a lot!
