New video camera

Sanyo XactiI bought a Sanyo Xacti nine-megapixel video camera through eBay from Hong Kong before it was readily available in Australia.

The gadget has only just arrived and I haven’t had much time to experiment with it yet, but first impressions are very positive.

It’s small and shoots high quality. There are recording options for television standard or web.

I plan to use it on our drive across the country to hopefully film a scene of the Great Australian Bight and the houses we previously lived in at Ceduna and Port Pirie. If they work I’ll post the clips here in a couple of weeks.

More importantly, I hope Dad will be well enough and willing to speak on camera. That was a great suggestion from a friend of mine to capture a special memory.

Down the track I hope to use the camera for recording some web news at Mount Gambier.
