It's Business Time

Sort of.

Meaning I have finally joined the world in owning my very first video camera. It's a Kodak ZI8 Pocket Video Camera. Small, tidy, is not extra fancy and from the demo I saw that prompted me to buy it, should work adequately for the process documentation, memory aid and to create the work sample/s that I've needed a camera for forever.

Considering that it's getting late, I'm at home with dim lighting and no human specimen to record a first sample, I used my Jolly Lolly Oliver (aptly eating leftover Kibbles aka Nibbles aka Dinner) to see some movement and took a few photos and videos of my room.

Bed + Oliver


Oliver looks grainy, but the background looks clean. The zoom function moves in chunky and I don't think I like chunky, at least not in this sense. Chunky peanut butter, yes, but zooming, maybe not so much. Will note that I'll need to (possibly) do a close up and full room shot of the studio and set on Friday. No selling, so nothing fancy. Also note that I'm a beginner and if I get anything good at all, will be very pleased indeed.

This sucker also shoots in HD, so we'll see how that works next.
