When we finally (and hopefully) get our Web site going we hope to be able to include a bit of multi-media as well. Even though we are a monthly magazine we hope to be able to launch a full online platform. We plan to use the Web site for more breaking news that does not fit into the monthly format.
It was just by chance that this nifty gadget landed on my desk yesterday. The Creative DiVi Cam 516 allows for video audio and still pictures – pretty much the perfect multi-media tool rolled into one.
The fact that the camera is the size of a packet of cigarettes adds to its appeal. Throw in a 5.1 mega pixel digital camera and you have my attention. The video resolution is 640 by 480 which is great if you are looking to publish on the Web.
The only problem I foresee is being able to film the interviewee properly with such a small camera – I see a gap in the market for Smurf tripods…anyone willing to bankroll?
