I have Xacti lust again

by Jeremy Vaught

This last weekend I attended PocampAZ.  And I re-realized that I want a Xacti for filming video.  I want to make videos, and the Xacti seems to be the best package.

My friends Mark Forman and Clintus McGintus both have the Sanyo Xacti waterproof edition and rave about it.

Here is the quick rundown from Sanyo:

  • Waterproof Digital Camcorder
  • 8 Megapixel Still Photos
  • 5x Optical Zoom
  • 2.5-Inch LCD Display
  • Photo Face Detection
  • Video Face Chaser
  • Shake Control Mechanism

Did I say I want to make videos?  So now I’m saving up.

My plans as they stand now are to create videos as a creative outlet.  I also have some plans to do talking head type vidoes to post on my blog.  I also want to record what’s happening in life with my kids and girlfriend and trips and such.  Speaking of trips, I attend a lot of conferences, and I want to document these with video much more effectivly.  In fact, I have talked to Loic (my CEO at Seesmic) and he wants to see video wrap ups of the conference.  I tried it with @suzannev‘s camera, but it records everything to DVD and the video editor at Seesmic, Whit Scott, was not able to access it to edit them together. :(

Did I mention I want a Sanyo Xacti VPC-E2?  I do.
