[Dixielandjazz] Movie Cameras for U tube

[Janie McCue Lynch]

Larry....for a very simple pocket video, check out the Kodak website and
look at their Z16 Pocket Video Camera.  $179.00.  This is NOT a huge, 
complicated device but works well....and for that price you can't beat it.



Specifically for HD videos, easy upload to YouTube, built-in USB....record
up to 32 BG worth of vids.  



View on any HDTV w/ included cables, edit and share, etc., etc.

I'm getting ready to buy a movie camera and don't want to spend over $500 if
I can keep from it. I would prefer one that had an SD chip if possible and
be compatible with my new HD TV. I primarily want it to do videos for U tube
 There are a variety of formats from square to the newer wide screen and
different pixel ratings. A couple will do multi formats but are over $1k.
Some have 5.1 sound capabilities but I don't see how they manage that with
such a small camera. I would like as good a sound as possible though. 

 

I do have a still camera that will take video MP4's and do sound but I
thought I might like something a little better. My grandson puts things on U
tube all the time with it. 

 

I have the Adobe Premier elements 4 and Nero 8 but I really haven't used
them yet. I suppose there are editing features that I could use to modify
clips to fit U tube OK. 

 

What does everyone use? Am I just imagining a problem or is U tube pretty
flexible so far as formatting goes?
