I NEED a video camera

Between Halloween and Election Day, I’ve had so much fun.

Last night was the best.

Our Incumbent Senator with his crew were waiving at people in rush hour traffic at one of the busiest intersections in town. So here I am sitting in the left turn lane WISHING I had a video camera. I knew what was about to happen. He did not.

As I started moving with my green arrow - I gave em the stock horn a few times. This prompted furious hand waiving and thumbs up. When I got close enough, I practically drained the tanks. Their heads went back. The 20’ flag stopped waiving. Then their whole bodies went forward while laughing. They loved it…

So, yeah I’m video camera shopping.
God Bless America

Lol i think hornblasters needs to think about adding video cameras with their kits for a little extra. That guy will probably mention you in his acceptance speech if he wins so be on the lookout.

Ha ha I was like “Hey I voted for you…HOOOONK!!”

video or it didn’t happen. lol

you definitely need a camera. :slight_smile:

^^ yeah, yeah, I know the rulz… LOL

I’m shopping. Too many options. I wanted to spend like 200 buck, but I’m getting sucked into the $5-600 range.

Go pro. mount it anywhere on your vehicle/body etc. The only problem is it doesnt have a screen. however My buddy got the HD version for close to your price range and its pretty clear. I like it

droidx and the car mount… awesome!!

The GoPro looks good for dedicated in-car.
The $200 pocket camcorders seem to be the easiest to use and download from.
But I’m really after high quality sound, so that kind of dictates an external mic jack or accessory shoe.

Sort of eyeballing the Canon VIXIA HF M300, but there are complaints about battery life.
But they always have good optics.

I dunno. I have to learn about formats or filetypes / downloading / converting / editing / uploading to youtube / etc…

ill teach ya :smiley:

I’m sure it’s not too bad once you learn. Some peoples’ reviews have me scurd, but you never know their background.

I actually have a mini-DV recorder that’s 8 years old. I don’t think I’ve ever used it, but it’s a decent Sony that was $8-900 at the time. The battery is probably shot.

lol alot people that do reviews dont have much knowledge about it

Well, the battery took a charge and I messed with it a little.
I either need darker window tint or a smaller camera…lol
People were like WTF before I even honk.

Now smaller is looking better. Like the GoPro or a Cisco Flip.
