Little Whispers From The New Girl...

Hi There. I've just joined, my name is Chaz and I'm from London, England. I hate the weather here! Ive got an x-pole and do lessons once a week, since May this year. I have one video so far so I'm just getting used to it and into the flow of doing a continuous dance. Quick Question: If anyone can help....whats a real good webcam I can buy to take videos at clear picture quality and no movement blurring...mines rubbish and I'm willing to invest in a better one! How can I choose there are millions out there! (If you have a good clear one please let me know make and model I'd be very grateful!) 🙂 Happy Pole Dancing! Chaz xx

If you are talking about a good camera for posting videos on youtube and here, then look into the Flip Cam, they are inexpensive, super easy to use and have great quality and they are so compact they can go everywhere. Here is a link http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023B14TK/ref=s9_simz_gw_s3_p114_i2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=0G7033VWDV89AN01YDJ5&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=470938631&pf_rd_i=507846 (Spoiler Alert: Veena's July Challenge was filmed with one of these check it out on youtube in high-def http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdXdiELLxmA) If you are talking about a camera that connects to your computer for chatting, both Microsoft and Logitech have some excellent entries, your best bet is usually to visit http://www.cnet.com and see what is at the top of the pack currently.

Hi, Welcome. As far as cameras go I don't really like they way most web cams create vids. Most I have seen turn out kind of choppy. I have a great little video camera...I just got it and looove how easy it is to use, and how small it is!! Its called a Flip Video Mino HD. Love it, I did my latest vid, the Michael Jackson one with it and the quality is great, I think. 🥂

I love the Flips...we have 3 of them inthe house...all the old Ultra models...not HD. But I've heard the HD Mino is a good cam. The older Ultras save in Windows format, so they are easy to use with PC's bought over the counter with Windows Movie Maker. Had just one problem with a FLIP--a sticky button. I mailed it to the company, they mailed a new one back. No Problem. FLIPS have like 3 buttons. Stop, Go, and Record..basically...and they fit in a Universal Mount. I have dropped one off my bike onto a concrete bike bath at 20 miles per hour. The camera cracked slightly. I taped the case with Scotch tape...it works PERFECTLY. If you use Windex or Grip Product, the FLIP is very forgiving of pine tar, grime, and sweaty hands. And if you DO manage to break it...it's relatively cheap. KMART has the old ULTRAS on clearance for 75$ now. Mostly only the HOT ORANGE or LIME GREEN are left. But hey, it's just for the pole room! Joel
