What type of video camera do I need to upload video clips to my computer?
Do I need a digital camcorder or a digital camera with video? I know digital camers use memory cards, is it the same for digital camcorders? Does it matter? Seems like everyone, except me, can upload video clips.
If you don’t need real high quality clips, you can use most newer digital still cameras to get video clips and it is real easy to load them on the computer from the memory card or through the USB cord. They will also already be in a file format that the computer should automatically recognize.
For higher quality video or longer videos you can also use a video camera that uses mini-dvd’s. Then you can take the disk out of the camera and play it on your dvd player or in the dvd drive in your computer without any wires to hook up.

The secret the stores don’t want you to know. Hack a one-time use Video Camera so you can use it over and over! It works well for a spy camera too!
http://live.pirillo.com – If you buy only one new tech gadget this year, you really should look at getting a Flip video camera. This thing is literally plug-and-play. It doesn’t matter if you have a PC or a Mac. If you have a USB port, you can use this camcorder.
