I recorded this the day after I got the Vado (five months ago) and never got around to putting this up. I didn't include the Vado's inadequate storage in my list of negative qualities, so you can add that one on there.
I wanted to make a stabilzer for my zi8 and I stumbled upon Protodojo's flip float , thanks by the way . It's based on his design, small enough to keep in my backpack. It's my first test and still a work in progress.
stores.ebay.com A few days ago I posted a video showing how to make a simple camera cradle or camera caddy. I was trying to make something that would stabilize my Kodak zi8. What I found out was a cradle does not do a very good job stabilizing, it helps a lot, and it makes a very nice way to hold the camera. however,what a cradle is really good for is all of the ways you can add to it or modify it to increase the use of your camera. in my camera cradle video I describe numerous ways to use a cradle to increase the effectiveness of a camera. One of the ways I wanted to try first was to add a magnifier and try to make a macro lens. this video shows me doing just that. It was my first time using the magnifying lens , but I think it worked out great and can be improved even more. I hope you enjoy the video and subscribe if you like them. If you are interested in making underwater videos, i make and sell the nemo 200 underwater housing for video cameras, it is a very reliable, simple and affordable design. Please go to NemoHousing.com to see for your self. Any questions please email me. regards, Robb Moffett RobMoffett (at) gmail(dot)com
