More people need to get into #camcorders in #singapore. Been playing with a 2010 vintage Panasonic camcorder and I love every minute of it!

I just finished the first and second episode of #PrntScrn by @EposVox on #nebula.

If you are interested in #RetroTech and/or the analog history of some of the digital #tech that we take for granted today.
First Episode was about Home Video and #Camcorders, the second about #Webcams.
I can highly recommend both!

Ever just think about how the #UX of #camcorders got progressively worse with the progression of #technology?

#VHS: you put the tape in your VCR.
VHS-C: you put the tape in an adaptor.
video8/MiniDV: you plug your camcorder into your TV because you don't have a VCR for its tiny tapes.
SD: you have to scroll through menus to see individual clips, there's no "timeline" to shoot on anymore, editing required, and the media is reused, requiring offloading footage to your PC, never to be seen again.
