Me and my friends like to make little movie of us snowboarding and skiing. What a good camera like the ones that have the handle of top so we can film rails better and jumps and for chase cams? do you know a good camera?
any camera, but you definitely want to invest in a fisheye lens to get more of the boarder
i am making a snowboarding video and i want one of those cameras that has a fish eye effect. Do i need a specific camera or can i just use a video edditing software?
You can use a video editing software. Just add a pinch filter and blur the edges in a circular pattern. Then blur the outline. Or, you can buy the lens specifically for your camera online or something.
I’m looking into buying a camcorder to film skateboarding and snowboarding with friends. this would be my first camera, but i still want to get something good. I saw a thing called a camera caddie that is a handle that attaches to the camera and makes it easier. so if a camera has something like that available or built in that would be nice. I don’t really have a budget, but probably like $1000 max! i hope someone has some suggestions. thanks !!
I’ve been using my SD5 for several weeks now and I can find very little negative to say about it. Unlike the other reviewer’s comments, I really like the small size of the camera and find the ergonomics work well for me. I was able to master the use of the camera after only a couple of sessions, and it connects without problems with my MacBook Pro. I’ve been using iMovie 08 to edit the film, which couldn’t get any easier. Because of the large HD files, transferring the video to iMovie 08 can take a while, but I just do something else with my computer while the files are being converted. The video and sound quality are stunning, and the 10X optical zoom works smoothly and stays in focus. I filmed a live performance this past weekend, and even with the existing stage lighting the quality was remarkable. I’ve learned that it’s best to use the included DVD burner to save the files to DVD first before transferring to iMovie for editing, and the combination of these things works really well. The only thing I had to buy aside from the camcorder package was an 8 GB SD card, which I got for a bit more than $100. All in all a terrific little camera with stunning image quality!
