Quick test vid of the new cam up :)

[Dexter Inferno]

YouTube did mangle the sound on it quite a bit, as expected, but a nice demo of what it's capable of nonetheless.

An old JT tune very sloppily played and no singing at this point.
Then again the performance was not the issue this time.

Looking forward to trying the cam on louder sources (drums, band gigs/rehearsals and so on). Did VERY nice on the acoustic imo.

That's the Zoom? I want one... How much record time do you get from it?

Yep

With audio set to 16 bit/44.1 kHz you get 46 minutes on a 2 GB SD card.

[Mark Wein]

Very nice!

[jaxn slim]

HOLY SHIT I NEED ONE NOW!!!

[Dexter Inferno]

Very nice!

HOLY SHIT I NEED ONE NOW!!!

I'm a helper. You're welcome.

[mosiddiqi]

Great!

[Prages]

That sounds really good. It sounds a lot better than my camera, and I'm sure I paid a lot more for mine.

I can't understand a word you say at the end of the video though.

[Dexter Inferno]

Great!

I can picture getting to like this piece of gear.

[Phil513]

Thats great. I really gotta get me one of those.

[jrockbridge]

Enjoyed the playing! Sounds excellent!

The bit at the end is from the original (Only Solitaire) - the lyrics at the end go "but you're wrong, Steve. You see, it's only solitaire".

[Dexter Inferno]

Yes.

Enjoyed the playing! Sounds excellent!

Thanks

[micwalt]

Sounds great!

Very nice. I bought the same camera kerouac did so hopefully I'll get it soon.

Enjoy the new cam

Mine came today... the batteries take for-fucking-ever to charge.

Had a lot of accessories though... HDMI, USB, and standard def RCA cable, extra battery cover, carry pouch. Only thing mine didn't have? Manual.

[Kerouac]

Oh and that sounds really good Dexter! A friend of mine has the Z4 and it always sounds fantastic, so I expected your 3 would sound awesome too.

[irishstu]

Wow, sounds great.

I didn't know you could play guitar.

[Calum]

Good stuff!

Yeah, from what I've heard the Q3 is pretty much a more basic Z4 with video capabilities.
Cool having a pad on the mics as well for the louder sources (something that always bugged me with video cameras in general).

Wow, sounds great.

I didn't know you could play guitar.

Thanks. Not bad for a drummer, right?

Good stuff!

So I was going to make a video last night myself, but I downloaded the Kodak manual and it says to let the batteries charge for TWELVE HOURS first?

which model Kodak did you get?

[Kerouac]

which model Kodak did you get?

ZX1... it was the Woot deal a week ago and it was on sale for $50 so I thought I'd take a shot. My SDHC cards cost almost as much as the camera.

Cool! I'm curious to see what the quality is like...my Zi8 kicks ass for the money.

The big reason I bought it was for the NAMM show. I told you I'd do kick ass coverage and I'm going to deliver.

I don't know if I'll be able to post them until I get back though, and Howie will probably spoil everything by then.

Why? He's not going....

[Kerouac]

cool!



Why? He's not going....

I figure he'll be sniping posts and pics all day long from various sources.

I doubt it.

Oops.

I just popped in a couple of AA batteries. Just saying...

Yeah, I'm going to take extras with me to NAMM. Fuck that 12 hour bullshit.

[Dexter Inferno]

Yeah, that's one thing I learned quickly with my Canon point and shoot camera. Always bring a backup battery.

[irishstu]

So wait... you charge it for 12 hours and then you get, what, two hours use out of it?

[Kerouac]

I guess.
