I must to find a a good and cheap digital video camara useful for
YouTube video publishing with quality much better than the one you
can
see athttp://www.miguelgallardo.es/vicios/ocultos

I can buy 12 or even 20 videocamaras and maybe I can translate to
Spanish the instructons teaching tricks to my customers.

Any offer or commercial proposal is very welcome.

Hola Miguel,
My first advice would be to tell them to use a tripod! The biggest
single
"feature" of amateur video footage is the jumpy - can't -quite -
make -
their - mind - up - what - they - are - focussing - attention - on -
at -
that - particular - moment quality,

Buena suerte



Rob

Yes, you are right. I use it whenever I can, But now I need to buy a
better videocamara with an efficient battery for videos like the one
you can see athttp://www.miguelgallardo.es or
http://www.miguelgallardo.es/incompatibilidadesand
http://www.cita.es/peritos/inompatibles

Any advice?

Have you looked at Optize - I can highly recommend them - here's a search
for Sony MiniDV only cameras (the combination which I would personally
recommend):http://www.optize.es/servlet/navigat...pag=1&orden=9&...

MiniDV will give you the best quality for the least amount of messing
around
and there is plenty of software to do simple edits and conversion to
MPEG4
for Utube after uploading the footage to computer with a firewire cable.
Also do a google search for getting the best Utube quality - the trick is
to
start with the highest quality footage and use software to compress it
yourself to their requirements to avoid them using their low quailty
compression techniques and or recompressing what you have already done
compounding any defects in the quality of the material.

As for battery life - most of us are resigned to carrying extras around -
I
always carry a number of fully charged high capacity batteries when on a
shoot as well as using an in-car charger (I do mainly Wildlife /
Adventure
stuff). Most cameras come with a battery that lasts around an hour or two
if
you are lucky.

Hope that helps.

Rob

Yes, Rob, you helped me a lot. I think that I must buy a good Sony one
tht I must to see and check personally, but I need many more cheaper,
so please let me to know your opinion about 100 Euros or so simple
camaras like, for instance, the ones you can see at:
http://www.optize.es/servlet/TOSHIBA...22_optize.html
or at
http://www.optize.es/servlet/VIDEOCA..._op tize.html

I think that latest models can be good enough to improve videos like
the ones at http://www.miguelgallardo.es/vicios/ocultos
or any of the ones you can also see at www.cita.es or
www.miguelgallardo.es

Ok, well the question boils down to: Are these MPEG4 cameras of sufficiently
good quality? I hope someone else can chip in with a word from actual
experience - I did find a short clip made with the Toshiba Camileo:
http://www.metacafe.com/watch/785561/cavalcades_2007/
The quality is variable but some sections seem perfectly good enough for
Utube - and if you shoot at 640x480 and avoid the 320 setting, plus use of a
tripod - even under decent lighting conditions - you may get what you're
looking for.

?97 plus IVA isn't a bad price at all - perhaps Optize will do you a deal
where you try one out with the understanding that if they are what you need
you will buy a bulk quantity. If not they will take it back. It's worth
asking their sales dept. They are very good when it comes to service,
delivery and returns; but I've never asked them to take back an item because
"I don't like it"!


Rob

Maybe Optize will
