::::The 1.3 mega pixel still photo capability out-performed the stills capability on more modern video cameras despite them having much higher resolutions. Theft forced a change. Unfortunately the thief also took his footage of Asimo's visit to the London Science museum. Tip for camera owners - don't leave your tapes inside your machines. Request to thieves - take the camera by all means but please eject the tapes first.
:::*Panasonic NV GS120
::::An OK camera, the mpeg-4 facility is handy, no manual focus and no analogue input, and the 1.7 mega pixel still camera is a disappointment. The flash is badly located too. Still, you can unload your cassette whilst attached to a tripod.
:::*Sony DCR-IP220 MICROMV
::::Great camera with lots of whizzy gadgets, good usability, and ultra tiny cassettes. The one problem being no regular Digital Video output.
:::*Panasonic NV GS200
::::Upgrade to the GS120. All the same functions but more mega pixels (2.3 but the images are still no better!). Adds a manual focus ring plus analogue input. The flash is still badly mounted and rendered useless once a lens is attached. The mpeg-4 recording facility is quite handy and it manages with DV in/out.
::*For an internet video platform (uploading, hosting, editing, and publishing to the internet and mobile phones) he uses the Java-based primarily on the grounds of low cost, ease of use, reliability, and accessibility.
