Camera to take videos as well as stills. Light.. What is composite output?

Light to see subjects in low natural light can be built in, or a jack to add a separate light. Prefer less expensive to more expensive. Any recommendations?
Separate question--What is the difference between a camcorder that has just composite output vs one that also has component output?

Garydad,
Composite video and component video are both analog video signals. Composite is the older standard definition signal that you have commonly seen output over a single wire with a yellow RCA connector, along with the separate audio connections. Component video was the older analog high definition signal that was output over three separate wires with different color RCA connectors, along with the separate audio connections.
Are you looking for more of a still camera or for more of a camcorder?

When I got a new iPhone5, I experienced short battery life, and system sofware issues were not the cause. The camera also takes a blury picture regardless of lighting and I have the black one. Has anyone else experienced similar problems?

What makes you so sure it isn't software?
The camera can be focused by take the point of focus on the touch screen.
If it is new as you said, it should be under warranty. Make a Genius Bar appointment or contact Apple with a repair request.

IPod 4g: the accumulator does not load, camera doesn' t open, reset done but still defect, what can I do?

I can't load the accumulator, the camera does not open the lens. The cable is not defekt. iPod does not recognise when electric- cable is pluged.

I think load the accumulator means charge the iPod.
Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My camera no longer takes videos

My camera on my IPOD Touch v. 5.1 no longer allows me to take videos. Whenever I try to take a video it just freezes and then I have to push the home button to get it off the screen.

try this:
1) reboot your iPod by pressing on/off and home button for about 10 seconds (this will not erase any data)
2) if this doesn't work, backup and restore your iPod.

Camera app won't take VIDEO after upgrading to iOS 8.

I take videos every day in my work. Since upgrading to iOS 8, I can take PICTURES, but when I take a video, it -disappears-. I can't find it on the iPhone (5) and it doesn't show up in that tiny box in the corner of the screen like it did under iOS 7. I've looked under Photos and under Videos.

Yes, you'll find that when you have the video problem, you also cannot get Siri to listen to you, and you cannot use the Voice Memos.app. I use voice memos a lot whilst driving between clients. Indeed, any app that uses the microphone will fail.
So I had an old iPhone 4 that I pressed into use (OFF NETWORK) and JUST TO ADJUST THE STARKEYS, and am not using my iPhone 5 paired to the Starkeys at all. BTW, this is true also for the Resound Linx.
50/50 chance that fixing the Bluetooth issue will also fix this one. Wait and see.
Meantime, I have a 6+ on order, and plan to not fire that up on cellular until the problems are resolved, but to use it for photography in the interim.

Import and Management of Video Files by Date Still Broken

It really is very disappointing that after 3 versions, and 110 bug fixes, basic things like importing or managing a video file by date is still completely broken.
Even more troubling, is that for someone who uses LR3 this is a very obvious problem, and should be very easy to fix.
When you import a file on a wide range of cameras the date that is used for the video file as far as LR3 is concerned is the date you are importing it, not the date it was taken. This makes any management of the file, especially when managed next to pictures, very difficult.
The problem, as far as I can tell, is that in Windows, a file has both a 'Date Created' and a 'Date Modified'. 'Date Created' is whenever the file was created on the PC. If you bought a new computer and transferred a bunch of files over on 30/12/2010, all of your files will have a 'Date Created' that is 30/12/2010 regardless of when the photos or videos were taken. Or if you take a video on September 1st and import it onto your computer September 15th, it will have a 'Date Created' of September 15th.
'Date Modified' however lists the date that the file was last changed. For video files, that most likely was the date the video was shot.
Every program I have ever used for video files has always organized them by Date Modified (when organizing them by date). For example, its the default in Windows 7 Explorer when showing video files, all the video files listed by the date you have taken them. Date Created really doesnt have any useful information.
Its inexplicable to me why LR3 uses Date Created instead of Date Modified. It is a glaring error, that should be easily fixed. Microsoft can manage to do it right, as a byproduct in its OS, Im not sure why an imaging company in a $400 piece of specialist software cannot.
And just in case this is overlooked as a minor problem, it certainly is not. It happens to the following cameras:
D90 (first camera to shoot video)
D3s (thought by many to be the best low light camera)
D7000 (likely to be Nikon's most important DSLR)
D3100 (likely to be Nikon's most purchased DSLR)
Canon S95 (one of 2 most popular P+S for DSLR owners)
Fuji 31fd (Ill never forget you!)
And those are just the cameras I have on my desk, Im sure it happens to many others.
Also, when importing these files by date, LR3 will import them into a folder 1 date later then the date that LR3 is using for the file. So, just to be clear, you could take a video on May 1st, import it into LR3 on May 2nd and LR3 would say it was taken May 2nd, and it would be placed in the folder for May 3rd.
Im really not sure why something so basic has not been addressed in so long, and it makes any sort of managment of video files by date in LR3 useless.
Very disappointing.

I agree that the wrong file system date is being used. But I scanned all my Lightroom files (manually) tagged with 'video'. When the file contains suitable metadata with a capture time that is used. When that's missing, the (wrong) file system date is used.
Interestingly I even found one camera where the dates were originally right (in 2009), then disappeared for a while (probably due to a firmware upgrade!) and then came back again. Summary of what I found:
Very old (Philips) webcam / format AVI / no metadata visible / wrong date
Canon Powershot A80 / format AVI / metadata visible / right date
Nokia N73 cellphone / format MP4 / no metadata / wrong date
Canon EOS 5D Mark II around 2009 / format MOV / metadata visible / right date
Canon EOS 5D Mark II around 2010 / format MOV / no metadata / wrong date
Canon EOS 5D Mark II around 2011 / format MOV / metadata visible / right date
So my conclusion is that the camera makers are making a bit of a mess when they introduced video. Nikon introduced its video a year or so later than Canon. I don't know if "no metadata" means that there is none, or that Adobe just doesn't like the format. But given the pattern of the firmware updates with Canon, it looks like Canon and Adobe ultimately agreed on the format. But in any case Lightroom (I am using 3.4.1) has a bug w.r.t. its fallback scenario of reading file system dates.
In my case, the dates changed when I copied all my data from one disk (old NAS) to a new one (new NAS). It is disconcerting that you get the copying date despite comparison tools declaring the files to be identical (Beyond Compare 3 also keeps an eye on date differences).
Hope this helps, Peter

How to take video on 3gs, how to take video on 3gs

I dont know how to take video on 3gs and how to install skype for ios 4.1.

In the Camera app you should have a slider at the bottom right of the screen to switch between stills and videos.
In terms of Skype on iOS 4.1, then unless you already have a copy of the app for that version (or lower) then you can't - the version that is currently in the app store requires iOS 4.3+, so you will need to update the iOS to use that.

Nikon Camera .mov iPod video

Hi
I understand that I can utilise Apple's Camera Connector, Belkin's Camera Link or Belkin's Media Reader to move images either directly from my camera / CF Card to the iPod video.
However, in addition to still images, my Nikon shoots reasonable 640x480 Quicktime movies. What I'd like to know is whether any of these devices (or similar) could be used to move .mov video files from the camera/card to the iPod.
I'm traveling to India for a month and would prefer not to take a powerbook with me. I'm hoping I can find a way to get all the media from my CF card directly onto the iPod.
btw. (this would be a bonus but not essential.) If I managed to transer a 640x480 .mov onto the iPod, would it play?

My review for Connector posted yesterday:
"Great Potential but not mature (yet).
Connector is a great idea and interface between our 30Gb iPod (video) and Canon Powershot S80 works basically fine. Connector delivers as promised, but -unlike Apple- the provided software support and functionality by current version of iPod software (v1.0.0) is far too minimal:
- you can't make a (previewed) selection of images to be transferred. It's ‘all or nothing’ and ‘images only’ transfer (jpeg). Sadfully other camera content like video files, is ignored. Therefore you can only free up the camera memory space used by images. OK, immediately viewing those camera produced avi's is too much asked considering capabilities of current iPod’s and its file type support, but just basic transfer of all camera data as mature backup medium should be (made) possible.
- Transfer speed is very slow. Even though they both support USB2.0 current throughput is about 15-30 minutes per 1GB (worse than USB1.1 spec!) and drains batteries rapidly. Because of that you run the risk of running out of batteries on either unit before complete transfer is finished, especially with nowadays common but big memory cards. This wouldn’t be that much of a problem if smaller selections of camera content were possible or USB2.0 transfer speed was really achieved (60GB/s)…
If Apple is able to improve compatibility, performance and feature set through future iPod software updates, the usefulness of this Connector is promising.
For now limited use (still need extra camera mem-cards), but cheap ‘gadget’ (modern camera’s come with 2,5” screens for viewing too)…"
Therefore answer to your 1st question if transfer of .mov from Nikon2iPod through Connector will work: Not sure, but unlikely since softwaresupport for Connector within Ipod (Photo & Video) is currently aimed for transferring and viewing photos (Jpeg) ONLY.
2nd question "will 640x480 play on iPod": NO, maximum support is 480x480 mov
Good luck & have fun in India
Robert

Won't take videos now.

After the update to 4.4.4 my phone won't take videos!

gf00329,
We're here to help! Sorry to hear about your troubles. Have you restarted your device? I would also force stop and clear data/cache from the app. You do this by going into the settings>apps>locate camera app>clear data/cache and force stop.
Also, try the camera in safe mode and see what your results are. Instructions; http://vz.to/1z2K1Ql

Removing camera flash from video

Is there a way to remove camera flash from video clips within PE8? If not natively, is there a plugin that can do this?
Thanks,
Steve

Here are the best answers that I can offer:
1) why do you go from Premiere Pro to Premiere Elements?
Actually, about 90% of my work is in PrPro. The rest is in AfterEffects, PrE and other NLE programs. Basically, I use those, including PrE, when they do something better than PrPro. PrE will accept a broader range of formats/CODEC's, than will PrPro, so I use it to Import those odd Assets, and get them ready for PrPro. Same with CyberLink's PowerDirector, and Magix MovieEdit Pro.
2) How do you synch the audio and video (I'm guessing that you record off-camera). I synch it by eye and ear and it can be tedious. I don't have time code synchronized equipment
Most of my shooting is actually done with camera audio capture, though usually through either a shotgun, or wireless mics, attached to and recording to the camera's tape. When I do separate audio & video capture, I slate, so that I have the visual and audio sync. When I am faced with having to do manual sync, I will look for the visual and then the accompanying audio, and just nudge and listen. This ARTICLE will give you some of the mechanics of the process.
3) I don't know much about DD 5.1 SS and this is just from the point of curiosity at present, can it be a problem keeping long clips in sync?
I do not record to DD 5.1 SS, as that is a very expensive and technically challenging process. It takes six well-designed and well-placed mics, a multi-channel recorder and a mixing panel, run by a skilled tech. My DD 5.1 SS Audio is with regard to the music for my Projects. Some of it is recorded as 6 discrete channels and then mixed, while some is faux 5.1 and is "created" from 2-channel source material.
Much of the work from Hollywood is actually faux 5.1, in that the source material is seldom recorded in 5.1. Most is stereo and mono, and is blended from myriad sources. These can be SFX, dialog, ambient audio. Most of those are mono TO separate them out from any other audio sources. Narration is a good example. Few audio techs, would consider using a stereo mic for narration and would choose a very directional mono mic, so as to better reject other audio signals.
Now, I can take a mono SFX file and pan/fade (not in the terms of a "fade" Transition, but front to rear location) it across/around the sound stage. I can place that bumblebee anywhere that I want, when I want it with 5.1 SS Audio. I'd almost always work with mono sources, so that I have the pure signal with no clues as to the source location - I set those in mixing.
I must add that with regard to mixing of music, there are constraints on doing faux 5.1. If the material was not recorded on multiple tracks to begin with, the RIAA, and other organizations, greatly frowns on creating a 5.1 "master." That came after the failed quadrophonics experiments from the '70s/'80s. With Hollywood's music, the recording IS done multi-track in the studio/symphony hall, so it IS multi-track and just gets mixed down to 5.1 Audio. This will be about the only time that the audio is done multi-channel in recording, as few environments lend themselves to doing 5.1 during the initial recording. There are exceptions, like live concerts, but that is almost a genre unto itself.
Sync, in and of itself, is not difficult to maintain, but so much depends on the recording equipment. Many, using separate cameras and recorders, often find that there is sync drift, and need to establish the % of "cure." In the old cine days, we hooked our camera to the Nagra recorder, and chose which unit's crystal clock would establish sync. Then, we had a cable between the two. Nowadays with digital, it seems a bit more difficult. There are several recent threads in the PrPro forum about the sync drift between pro-level cameras and recorders. One user has found that altering his recorder's output by 104% fixes the OOS issues. Others need to test critically. The sync clocks in different equipment just does not match up perfectly, and there is usually no universal crystal clock that overrides the internal ones - like in the "good old days."
Hope that this helps. If I missed something, please let me know,
Hunt

Try to do a reset, if it doesn't work try remove recently added apps this may solve your problem ( like google app because it has happened with me)
Take a look at apps using your location service in privacy, it can cause battery draining.
