Great product2009-04-18
I have been using this IR light and it works great, I have had no problems with is and it is easy to use. I use it for paranormal investigating.
Great Product2009-03-14
I was a little skeptical when I purchased this light, but what a great little product. If you are filming at night this is the product you want. We use this for paranormal investigations regularly and it works great, very good distance.
The only drawback, which is expected is the batteries drain quicker, so have spare batteries when filming.
Very happy with the product.
S'port mom2008-12-30
Works a charm. Very simple to use. Has been a large help in the dim situations where the infrared was not desired because of turning everything a "spooky movie green". Glad I found it.
Worth the money2008-07-26
This item is definately worth the price.

The quality is great and it amazingly increased my night time capabilities. Although the light enhancement isn't that important and as great then the infared.

Anyways, this item is great for its price.
Great Little Light2008-07-16
When I first saw this light, I was disappointed by its small size. But very quickly, I realized that being small is desirable. It's easier to handle and less intimidating to your subjects.

I bought it mainly for its IR capability, which is quite good. You can light up anything in total darkness. Sure, seeing everything in a green hue is not as good as seeing color, but for projects that require IR, color isn't all that important anyway.

The "white" light isn't going to light up a room, but it's great to have on a number of occasions. If say, you are recording the time you and your friends stood in line overnight for tickets, this light is all you need.

I think it's a little on the expensive side, but I rate the product - not the price. If this light cost $1000, I would still give it five stars, but I would complain like hell about the price in the body of my review.

Why You Should Use A Mini DV Camcorder
Introduction The mini DV camcorder has many advantages to offer its users. If you enjoy your digital video camera you will also enjoy this. The mini DV camcorder is easier to take with you than the regular sized cameras such as the hi definition camcorder, or the hi-Res camcorder. The size of this camcorder is one of its big advantages. The features this camcorder can offer are also great. Some cameras offer more features than others, so make sure that the camera has the features you want. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Generally when design, performance and technological improvements are made on electronic products there is a reduction in size as well to make them more compact. For example the early day radios were built in large cabinets and required radio vacuum tubes. Eventually, transistor radios were constructed and were more portable. Today, a radio can be as small as a wristwatch. Camcorders have also evolved in tec ...
