Videos

I have found that videos really help to supplement any written reviews that I do. Sometimes a picture or video is worth a 1000 words. Therefore, I have begun including short video reviews of many of the products that I use or evaluate.

For these videos, I’m using a variety of technology including (but not limited to):

Flip Video UltraHD – donated to me by the Flip Video folks
Kodak Zi8/PlayTouch – donated to me by the Kodak guys and gals
Apple MacBook Pro – my preferred hardware for just about everything
iMovie – used to pull together the video reviews and one of the easiest and best video creation software applications around
Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi – for any photo stills that I use, this is the current (outdated) Canon Digital SLR that I’m using
ScreenFlow – screencast software donated to me by TeleStream
Camtasia for Mac – screencast software donated to me by TechSmith
BlueMic Snowflake – a USB mic donated to me by BlueMic
Zoom H1 Recorder – a stereo recorder for interviews and as an external mix for Kodak devices, given to me by Zoom
Other stuff (coming?) – if you are interested in donating to my technology addiction, please contact me!

In the meantime, you can see my Product Review Videos on the HighTechDad YouTube Channel.
