potential $$$$ winners i missed capturing this weekend: -my 15lb puppy "humping" a great danes head. -my children skiing for the first time. -my son puking on a skier below from up on the ski lift.(we discovered that he has a fear of heights...) -my daughter's ski pants falling to her knees because she didn't fasten then securely after she went potty. -my choc lab and the eskie puppy barking in "stranger alert mode" at the snowman that they watched the kids build. -my graceful fall UP the stairs. -mr. sorgee getting peed on by the puppy because the puppy got scared by a bird hitting a window beside him. and all of that happened with in about a 4 hour time span.

That does sound like an awfully fun weekend Sorgee!I have a Sony 8mm Camcorder and it works great....but I've been thinking about upgrading to the new DVR's.....digital video recorders. They not only work as video camera's but as a still image digital camera as well. The storage media varies from model to model but most are about the size of a postage stamp but still hold about 12 hours of high quality video and several dozen digital "snapshots". When you get home you put the "smart card" into a USB dock on your home computer and it downloads it into memeory.....all of them come with software so that you can edit and add tons of special effects to your videos......if it is something you want to save to VHS then you just plug the camera inot your VCR and dub it! Heck my Sony big screen TV even has a port on it where I can plug the "smart Cards" directly into it and play it on the TV. It's all totally digital so the quality is tons better than VHS. No more lugging around video tapes on trips and stuff...these new cameras are small and very light! Canon, Sony and Panosonic all have models starting between 300-400 dollars. Just my 2 cents.....good luck and have fun! OFFICIAL ANNOUNCER OF THE WINKY-BONER AND HAMSTER HO SHOW

LAST EDITED ON 03-19-03 AT 12:00 PM (EST)Yeah, what he said! Go digital! We have an older Panasonic that originally cost us $600 back in 1996. It is great, except we wish we had the stabilization that you need to make sure your zoomed image does not waver all over the place. I think all cameras sold today have that, however. Anyway, it has been a good camera, but I hope we can upgrade to digital someday. Good luck and I think it would be worth it to get yourself a really good camera, sorgee, since you have such an interesting family. AFV is looking for you! A Silverchild original, 2002

A friend of mine has already bought a digital camcorder that he paid around $450 for......mine we bought 3 years ago for $699 His had a 450X digital Zoom that is incredible...has automatic picture stablization on it...*waves at Silvergirl*..the picture is perfectly still even if you walk with the camera!!
mine has a 100x digital zoom and if you record something with it and watch it later, you get seasick from all the camera motion. With the new technology go digital!
--expects you to say "hi" to him when you win the big money on AFV!

Well, if you turn it the "right" way, it'll be too tall.shrinking it any further in that direction looked like it would make it look funky-small. so I improvised. {grin} -- JV Here, try this one:
