A Pocketful Of Video Miracles

摘要

I was never a fan of camcorders. Maybe it's because I didn't appreciate other people's home movies (and don't have kids of my own). But mostly it's because I never wanted to carry around one of these big, bulky machines. They're unwieldy, with flip-out screens and pop-up viewfinders; they're heavy, at a pound or more; and they require their own bag to stow all the accompanying paraphernalia―from spare batteries to adapters and cords. A simple point-and-shoot camera that I can slip in a pocket is good enough for me.
