Is the flip video camera good for filming skateboarding?

April 13, 2010 - 12:10 pm 1 Comment

I just want to know if the Flip video camera is good enough to capture fast tricks ( like tre flips) with good quality. So if i slowed it down on the computer it wouldnt be low quality and hard to see. If not what other good cheap cameras would be good for that.

Check out the new Casio Exilim high speed cameras. These are some of the only low budget high speed cameras available.

If you slow down video taken with any normal camera, you’ll only get jerky low quality slows.

I picked up the EX-FS10 for about $170 and the slow motion video this thing is capable of is amazing for a point & shoot…

Only downside is your subject needs to be well lit. Outside in the sun is perfect.

What is the benefit of a video camera (camcorder) over a point & shoot camera that does video?

April 5, 2010 - 9:23 am 3 Comments

I have a point and shoot Panasonic camera that shoots in HD video. My wife would like a camcorder (basically a video camera). I am trying to figure out does a camcorder do anything different or better than a point and shoot regular camera that does video? Thanks

A camcorder, depending on size will usually have more features. A palm-size and/or larger cam could have more manual controls such has manual focus, ability to set light balance, external microphone jack, shoe mount for add-on light or mic, And most have threaded lens barrels for and-on filters, etc. Also a palm-size or larger camcorder makes it easier to hold, to control. And most have a pop-out LCD screen to monitor (lots of users like that). Camcorders usually hold more video than a point-and-shoot cam. Also, a camcorder could have a larger and better sensor and better quality lens. There are digital single-lens reflex cameras (D-SLR) on the market that shoot full HD. One of the draw-backs is the amount memory storage, depending on the media. But with D-SLRs, you have the ability to change lenses, which can allow you control over depth of field. All this is subjective to what a user wants in a camera.
