New iPod Nano Video Recording Feature Review

If you're looking for a great way to make movies without using a conventional video camera, then look no further. The new iPod Nano (5th generation) now has a video recorder so you can record anything with ease.

For many users, this is certainly good news since they don't have to rely on a heavy video camera to do the job. But this is just the tip of the iceberg since there's more to love in the Nano.

At first glance, the 5th generation Nano doesn't look any different from its 4th generation predecessor. But you'll be surprised at the way it records videos. This small device packs a larger screen and the quality of the videos is amazing. Thanks to the Nano's accelerometer, you can choose between landscape and portrait mode while filming.

"There's no question that a built-in videocam makes the slim iPod Nano a far more attractive option than a (relatively) bulky, single-purpose, standard-definition handheld video camera such as the $140 Pure Digital Flip Mino or the $100 Creative Vado. You're not going to get HD, but despite its low resolution (VGA, 640 by 480 at 30fps), video captured with the nano is crisp and vibrant and rivals footage from the Mino or the Vado," according to Tim Gideon of PCMag.honeycomb panels and foam core panels characterize our many lightweight panelsCom.

Product reviewers have argued that the Nano even looks and sounds better than the iPhone 3GS. The only real challenge comes in holding the video camera. The user must be careful not to place their finger(s) over the lens while holding it and shooting video. It may be an exercise in agility but users are still happy with its performance once they get used to using it.

With a little practice, however, your fingers shouldn't get in the way of making great movies. Again,,but this option was almost as appealing as passing the kidney stone again. this is a cinch considering the many cool effects the Nano has like Sepia,マジコン,Welcome to TMJ-Bruxism-Guide.com. Film Grain, Black and White, and Thermal (which looks as if it was taken from the sci-fi movie Predator). There's also an X-ray effect that won't let you see with x-ray vision but is still fun to use. Each of the 15 special effects is found in a menu which displays the effect live as it creates it. Just hold down the center button while in video mode to access.

The Nano also does a great job organizing your videos sorting them by date. You should be able to see them listed just like your music and other files. You can even import to your iPhone and use iPhoto to load up to your Facebook and YouTube accounts. The only feature the Nano does not possess is the ability to shoot still photos although it remains the only portable media device that doubles as a video camera.

If you don't own a Nano, get one today. The new video recording feature certainly makes it better than ever. If you already own one but can't use since it's not working properly, don't fret.
