Pint Size Video

Wednesday, February 18, 2009
Someone asked me the other day what I use to shoot the video posted on the blog, so I decided to share. I've been using the Creative Vado which is a small cell phone sized video camera. It records up to two hours of decent quality video and the battery lasts forever. What's best is you just plug it straight into your computer to download the video; no cables or complicated software or storage media necessary. It's all housed within the unit itself.

I think the biggest draw for me when I bought it was the price. It's selling for $79 right now for the silver, and $65 for those of you who like pink.

I've found it to be quite handy taking videos of the hounds playing. I've also been slipping it in my pocket to take it around town; because you never know what you might see! I secretly want to be one of those iReporters on CNN who submits a video of some major news event.

For those of you who are more adventurous, or really like gadgets [Trina], they have an HD version available as well, but it carries a heftier price tag too!

Thank you for posting this, as we've been talking about getting a video camera but are trying to stay on budget. But Harvey is a "roo champion" and now we may have a way to prove it!
