Title: Copwatch: Camera Discussion
Post by: FTL_Ian on April 10, 2008, 06:03 PM NHFT
Circuit City has a $150 720p cheapie that has night shot.  Tempting...  There's also $235 Panasonic with water resistance, but no night shot.

They have a couple on clearance for $70, standard rez, no night shot.

See anything interesting?

I'll have to check http://amazon.freetalklive.com later tonight.

I know they're getting cheap, but $70? Do those record to miniDV or harddrive/flash? If it's something other than that you probably don't want it.

What exactly is "night shot"? It sounds like a made up term to get people to buy it thinking they are buying night vision. I will be posting my copwatch video later tonight, and with my $300 circuit city camera, I got decent picture even in the dark, and my camera is very unfriendly to low light.

I do not buy from circuit city anymore though. I don't support sucky customer service, slow checkout lines, and failed repairs.

Flash, I think.  The "night shot" one was not plugged in.
