I used a simple Flip videocamera, a real simple one that stores 60 minutes of digital video. It has its own software built into the camera. The camera has an integrated USB plug to connect directly to a PC or Mac (no cable). When plugged in, the software (stored in memory on the Flip) automatically starts. It allows downloading, compacting for email, automatic uploads to YouTube and AOL Video, and more. Pretty neat for an inexpensive ($140 I believe) simple to use camera. And, quality is not bad.
Hi Jeff, I took a number of your nylearns seminars at Region one. I saw this video with the tech teacher at MS 118. What software and hardware did you use?
