Re: My new photo studio beginning

i was in tenerife recently and was offered what can only be described as a fantastic camera, full HD, 4 hour battery digital the works, i think a fuji, or similar. starting price (as UK apparently?) £900 +!! he came down to £80.00, so i left it there, it had to be a copy so i was told....too late now i suppose, but i wish i'd got it, copy or not...

Re: My new photo studio beginning

Phill its amazing what they have done with cameras they used to be big and bulky and you had to tote a big bag to carry all the equipment needed to shoot a vid now they look like a cell phone and deliver fantastic resolution and ease of use no brainers love it,I will order from Walmart online and they ship it by truck to the nearest store for free cant beat it. smile

Re: My new photo studio beginning

My $100 still camera takes hd videos.  I use it for both, and I must say the video quality is excellent.  Not what you'd expect from a still camera at least.  I can only imagine what an $800 hd vid camera would do. 

Have fun Russ - as long as you are that's all that matters!!!

Re: My new photo studio beginning

Ever try a flip camera? I bought one for 80.00 in a clearence section at Wal Mart. It works great. Easy to use as an instamatic, And tiny. You may want to look into one of those

Re: My new photo studio beginning

This is the 1st video I shot with the new webcam,the mic volume was up to high its been reset and I used a filter that came with the new movie maker live download thats associated with the Microsoft webcam I will test it further with lower volume settings before giving up and useing a SM-58 out of my digital BR-8 recorder.HD video filming on my computer may not be possible due to issues with the age and video card it seems I can view it but so far the sharpness is not present when I video tape and I am useing the correct screen resolution so the jury is still out I may yet have to either get another webcam or HD camera,I will have my Greenscreen studio finished this weekend also I am downloading motion backgrounds as well as photos that fit the storyline of the music I am composing.I am looking into Chroma key software that is more flexable then the free Wax2 program I have because it only reconizes AVI formats which requires me to convert it first "oh how we suffer for the sake of art" lol anyway this is a cover song of Neal Young's "Long may you run" the size of the file was 230 MB so I loaded into moviemaker and cut it down to 98MB still a bit large as it takes almost 30 minutes to upload but I will work on reducing it smile

Re: My new photo studio beginning

I think a small HD camera is what I will eventually settle on only because I like to shoot vids on location (the lake,park etc.) I have located several cameras around the same price as yours and unless your doing a shoot for a lot of money I cant see investing big bucks smile
