Wired Journalists

Get wired to win.

I am trying to start doing videos for our college paper, but we have a major lack of equipment. Does anyone have good recommendations on a video camera and accessories that I can pass on to our advisers? I noticed that Mindy McAdams is using the Canon HV20. I don't know that I need something that does HD, but I am looking for quality, low price and ease of use, since I know very little about video and I am the one that is going to have to teach the rest of the staff how to use it. Any other advice for me?

You may or may not have any idea what drama this has caused in the newsroom. I won't go into it. But I finally got a camera and I cannot even get it to work as it is intended. I left work today early because they were trying to make this work. Just too frustrated so now I am at the coffee shop.

I can kind of imagine what it's like, seeing as how all newsrooms have some drama from time to time during the day happen. Probably getting out of there was the smartest thing to do.

I saw Pinnacle on sale at a computer store for $40.
