Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted August 28, 2015 Author Hash Fellow Posted August 28, 2015 I'm having a bit of camera battery trouble. Don't wander off. Quote

Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted August 29, 2015 Author Hash Fellow Posted August 29, 2015 I'm shocked... that my $25 HD camcorder has failed after only 7 years.Well, there's an open box special at Microcenter... Quote
*A:M User* Roger Posted August 30, 2015 *A:M User* Posted August 30, 2015 You can get an HD camcorder for $25? I guess image sensors have gotten really really cheap. Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted August 30, 2015 Author Hash Fellow Posted August 30, 2015 You can get an HD camcorder for $25? I guess image sensors have gotten really really cheap. Clearance item, not-a-known-brand, no zoom, lousy mic... but it was a camera and it recorded to Quicktime which made life simple. I went up to Microcenter yesterday to find the new camera. It was in a locked case so I had to wait 20+ minutes for a sales guy to finish to upselling some clueless dad-type on an extended warranty and virus protection and a new printer and whatever... before he could get to me. Then I spent the rest of yesterday figuring out how to get a usable file format out of it. I think it will be going back to the pound. Quote
*A:M User* Roger Posted August 31, 2015 *A:M User* Posted August 31, 2015 I'm on my break and thought I'd check in...any luck with the new camera? Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted August 31, 2015 Author Hash Fellow Posted August 31, 2015 I'm on my break and thought I'd check in...any luck with the new camera? Yes! I finally got the big scratch on camera yesterday. I'm editing some intros and outros and other essential bits and I'm sure it will all be ready well before the end of the year! Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted September 4, 2015 Author Hash Fellow Posted September 4, 2015 It's real close now.... Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted September 13, 2015 Author Hash Fellow Posted September 13, 2015 On the camera front... Microcenter did take it back for a full refund! I saw the clerk slap a new "Open Box" sticker on it (it had two already) for yet another $20 price reduction. It's fatal downfall for me was that it recorded in .mts format. There are utilities that claim to be able to "re-wrap" mts files into quicktime without having to re-encode it all but none of them worked on the files from this camera. Now I need to research an HD camcorder that is more suitable for my needs and budget. Quote
