What cameras do popular youtubers use?

I'm another youtube drummer looking to give my videos that professional crystal clear quality. I'm wondering what kind of camera can achieve this level of quality?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQOVRQW2Euk - here is an example of what im talking about

I've spent hours reading specs of expensive camcorders and flip cams alike but don't see anything to call home about in tech demos.

could I achieve quality comparable to the video I mentioned earlier with a Flip UltraHD or Bloggie?

Much appreciated!

I don't know what one they used, but a lot of big YouTubers use the Canon 60D or 7D. (These are top-of-the-line DSLRs, there would be no way to match the quality with a Flip or Bloggie)

sxephil, CharlesTrippy, and SoldierKnowsBest, all use one of these cameras (Can't remember exactly which one Phil uses, but Soldier and Charles use the 60D), so you can check out their channels, and see their videos, and the quality of each.
