| Plus he shows you which microphones to use and what the must-have accessories are.
This is great stuff—especially if you’re looking to make money with Web video:
Great video (as always) Mike!
And I thought I knew a lot about video cameras…
Anyway, thanks again for the video, and looking forward to future ones.
See you soon,
Ryan

Hi Mike,
Thank you so much for your clear and concise guide and video. I recently decided that I needed to start making some videos for my website and for Youtube. And quite honestly I didn’t know much about the equipment that I’d need. I decided on a flip camera and I bought one yesterday. I like its simplicity. I’ll let you know how it goes!
Thanks again,
Robert

Thanks for the informative video. You have provided a wonderful overview in a short amount of time, and done so very clearly. I will probably enter on the low end of the market, but now I have an idea of where that fits in the hierarchy and what to look for in the future.

Mike,
I have to say that was a very informative video…about video LOL
I really enjoyed it, and actually have been waiting for something like this (a comprehensive review of video cams and accessories) for quite some time.
Thanks again,
Joseph

Hi Mike,
First off, let me say thanks for a great video. You packed in some top quality information thaere and I enjoyed your relaxed presenting style.
I currently use a couple of Sony HDV prosumer cameras for all of my video needs. The visual quality is exceptional and they offer a lot of flexibility through various manual overrides. I shoot mainly school theatre productions and family stuff.
The other aspect of video-making is video editing. I liked the use of overlay graphics in your film. Is this an area that you will cover in future videos?
Regards,
Dave

Good stuff Mike, I have been looking for a new camera, I’ve been using the flip. I want something that works good as a webcam so this one video helped a lot.
In the pdf you don’t list any of them as capable of being used as webcams, didn’t you have one in the video that could be used as such?

Great info Mike,
And good timing especially with the Christmas shopping season coming upon us. Now we know what to look for when there are all those great deals coming at us for video cameras. (I heard there will be big price slashes this Christmas shopping season in the electronics arena to entice people to start buying again.)
I am looking forward to hearing more because I know the power of video and what it can do for your business.

Hey Mike,
Wow, you got all the toys, I really enjoyed the
story about the con-artists in New York, and the
little light ring, never saw one before.
Best Wishes,
Jeff Davis

Mike,
Thanks for the Video AND Buying guide! I know this will be helpful in finding and retaining Prospects. We all know how powerful video marketing a home business on the internet is these days.

Thanks. Nice and informative. I bought a small flip camera at trade show and the salesperson told me that it had a mike input (he showed it to me). When I looked at it at home, it was an earphone output. No mike input. Your suggestions will help in the future.

Hey Mike,
Thanks for the great content as always. I don’t know if you have this planned or not, but are you going to cover video shooting techniques, e.g. shooting interviews (you covered), out door interviews, etc…
The video camera I use right now doesn’t have the image stabilization, do you recommend any accessories that can fix that?

I was so excited to get your email I opened it and stopped my homework and came and watched your video. It is so much better than TV and pitchy videos. I am using the HF-10 with flash memory storage and love it, except I run out of space sometimes.
I never saw a cool led light before and realize I need a wide angle Canon lens.
I really enjoyed this presentation and it has given me some ideas that will significantly improve my on line business including “how a video review blog should look” and “be a good guy”.
Looking forward to seeing the high end stuff and lighting tips.

Just starting out, grateful for info. My understanding is that the DV format is good in that in transferring, detail isn’t lost as in digital. Have I understood wrong?
I hadn’t seen that light ring before looks useful. I’m over in the U.K any supplier recomendations? Thanks
DV is digital–it’s just that the video is stored on tape. There isn’t a significant loss. Newer AVCHD cameras record to a SD card. For the most part there aren’t any more problems editing video from AVCHD cameras like there were at first.
If you’re using Sony Vegas, Final Cut Pro or iMovie, it shouldn’t be an issue. If you buy an AVCHD camera try to make sure you can edit the video with your preferred editing program.

Mike, congratulations on a job well done for the video. Appreciate it!
I just did a launch with free video contents solely recorded via my iPhone. There is an application called Cycorder. It’s the highest quality of video i’ve seen coming from a phone. About the size of YouTube video and SHARP! And it’s easy to shoot video with an iPhone, being light and all. =)
So if you don’t need all those professional nuts and bolts for your video, iPhone may be your solution after all.

Very good video.
I could have used this months ago when I spent hours researching the same stuff on my own.
It took me many days/hours to compile this same information because there was really no good sources of easy-to-understand information readily available on the internet at the time. Video is definitely the future and internet commercials too. It is just the beginning.
You have explained the budget hardware very well and will save time for many others just getting into audio/video.
