Would I be able to create a television commercial that is professional looking and sounding for less than $2k?

I'm thinking about getting a 1080p camcorder and a professional microphone. Editing in Adobe Premier and After Effects. Can this setup match commercial production?

Is there any specific equipment you'd like to recommend?

Minimum camera: Canon HV30 or Sony HDR-HC9
Suggested cameras: Sony HDR-FX7, HDR-FX1000, HVR-Z1, HVR-V1; Canon XL2, XHA1; Panasonic AG-DVX100; AG-HVX200

Minimum mic: Audio Technica AT875R Shotgun Mic. If used with the HV30 or HDR-HC9, add a XLR adapter (with Phantom Power - check juicedLink CX231 or BeachTek DXA-6HD).
Suggested mics: Sennheiser Wireless lavaliere (1 or more as needed) + any Sennheiser shotgun or Audio Technica AT8035 or above

Minimum external audio capture: Zoom H4
Suggested external audio capture: Anything from Fostex

Boom pole, Shock Mount, cables, tripod (Bogen-Manfrotto - weight rated at least 2x more than the camera - with a fluid head), maybe a crane (Kessler), lighting...

We don't know what the commercial is about.
We don't know if you need lighting.
We don't know if you need to pay talent.
We don't know if you need to pull any permits.
We don't know if you need to rent studio space.
We don't know if you need grips, construction, electrical, safety, craft services, wardrobe, makeup, vehicles, and lots of other stuff.

To answer your question directly: Yes it is possible - but you have not provided enough information about the project to understand the requirements. We also do not know what your skillset is. Equipment alone does not make things "look professional" A pro with low end equipment and skill will provide better and more compelling content than a novice with no skill and the best available equipment.
