Topic: Video with a 35mm camera

[cgfcgf]

With a 1 GB card I can record 10 minutes of video with the Canon 35 mm I have. I was thinking instead of buying a smaller hard driver recorder video camera I could just bring in the 35 mm camera (which I think would be or might be more venue friendly). I would also bring in (4) 4GB cards (and some batteries).

Anybody ever tried to get a whole show using one of these?

The first thing I'm concerned about is the audio from the onboard mic.

Anyone want to comment???

might as well buy a regular video camera dood

It will look like rubbish and the audio (especially if your recording a rock show) will be a distorted mess. I personally wouldn't bother.

Recorded by Russell with his Canon A700 consumer digital camera (not camcorder). Audio was added in post. http://www.69model.com/video.php

Thanks for the replies.

Video was cool (from an overall watching a music video view). But probably not good enough for what I will want(from an overall quality of recording view).

I'll probably get a camcorder for the show.
