  • Ol' faithful (the Philips CAM110) has battery/charging issues, so a new camera was necessary for RUclips. This means that we will be using decent equipment on the channel for once! Point & Shoot cameras have improved a lot over the last 5 years or so, making video a real possibility. This Nikon Coolpix L820 is an excellent example with a fantastic sounding microphone and very good quality video, but an iffy focus.

    Wow! The audio is so nice, and so is the color output, I love it man! Like you said though, the auto-focus looks like it doesn't work too well, but as long as the video is steady enough and/or on a tripod it won't matter too much.

    I had an earlier one from this series (L310). For stills, the quality was good. The 21x zoom was very good. I'd take it with me when cycling, and it was as good as a small pair of binoculars for spotting things in the distance. The main letdown was the crap quality video, but it looks like they've fixed that on the later one. The focus speed looks acceptable.
    I always hoped they'd release a firmware update to fix the video on the L310, but they never did.
    Tip: The resolution with asterisk is "fine" quality JPG, and that's what you want. Took me ages to work that out. I've no idea why these cameras default to low quality in this day and age.
    AA batteries, the zoom, the macro and the flash make it a great travel camera.

    I had a Coolpix L320 for awhile I used for RUclips. Was a ok Cam. I used it to record my first RV video. But it had a sad fall to the ground, and the lens would no longer come out. I ended up using my sony handycam, or the gopro hero 3, or my new Canon Rebel T3 with Magic lantern on it.

    I think that's better than my camera that cost 6x as much in 2009 LOL.

    Hi! I don't speak english very well so I couldn't understand what you said about the audio and video sync issues. See, I have this camera and this awful problem, how can I have it updated? Thank you so much for your help.

    Great review video😁👏. I have this camera. Got it as a gift few years ago. I am just now trying to learn to use it😂. So far I'm not pleased because all of my shots are so blurry. I can only get a clear shot if the subject and I remain very still. I don't know about cameras. I wanted to know does my blur problem have to do with shutter speed ? Can it be fixed? Or is my camera damaged? Thanks 😃

    Nice video! Do you happen to know if there is any way to connect an external mic to this camera either through USB or a microphone jack?

    • @lmull3
      @lmull3  9 лет назад

      Casey Cityhall Not that I know of. It's a hybrid point and shoot, so it's not going to have super high end features.

    i have the L820 and its a pretty decent camera, i use the nicad rechargeable batteries, my batteries are about 3 years old and still can get several hours of video before they die. im assuming you get many hours from the lithium, maybe i will get them next time.

    I think the 30 minute limit is some stupid EU rule. If I remember correctly, a camera that can record above 30 minute segments is considered a videocamera and the camera would be more expensive as a result. For whatever stupid reason....

  • @jpvanalles
    @jpvanalles 9 лет назад

    Why a big lens. If you want low light videographic. You have to see on the aperture of the lens. How lower the number f1.8 how more light it comes in.

    • @lmull3
      @lmull3  9 лет назад +1

      JP13357 Because a camera is only as good as the lens you put in front of the image sensor.

    • @lmull3
      @lmull3  9 лет назад

      MusicHaven2012 Not great. I wouldn't recommend using them on this particular camera. It's a bit power hungry.

      CountryNerd98 Those are probably the NiMh batteries I mentioned. I would like to give those a try in my camera. Amazon sells some that look decent.

    • @TroyFoxxin

      When I still used my Nikon Coolpix L320 I had some EBL 2800mAh Ni-MH Which worked well in it. Had a bad day recording ones where i had to start over allot times so the batteries put up with me for around 4-5 Hours of straight recording off a single charge. These days the batteries are used in my Portable USB Battery bank that takes AA Batteries. Kept my phone and Tablet charged well during a power outage.
