What's up Expo? I got here my Panasonic PVGS250 okay what is it? Obviously it is a video camera. Let me just show you this right here. Oh look at that. Yeah it is pretty nice. First of all you can get this in Best Buy any electronic stores; they are going to have it. Probably department stores they are going to have it. But I am going to average it around $250 to $300. You are going to pick this up with just the camera. You have the battery included with it. So that is really nice. You obviously are going to get a charger. You know it charges the battery up. And it is I mean this isn't the best camera out there. It is not like professional; let's go make a movie out of it whatever. But it is definitely good for recording around the house recording your friends if you want to have it around. And my favorite thing about this camera is the picture quality. It is just perfect like the colors are amazing. It is obviously 3CCD if you know what that means. Its colors are amazing on this. And your basic features right here they are pretty basic. Obviously you are just going to switch between you know you can take still photos. You can upload it to your pc. You can play the films or you can just record. You can also have a little scope right here. You can look through it if you want to. But most of the time you just may want to use the screen and you can move it back and forth like that right there. It is very cool. And I mean obviously like I said it is not the best camera but for $250 it is worth it. I'd recommend it. If you want to just have your own camera you want to have it around and want to film some stuff. You just want to take it around. This red light usually goes on but I haven't turned it off right now. If you want to show people that you are recording you could do that. But sometimes I don't want to do that and I just turn if off. You know people want to know when you are recording them. You also got your on and off right here. It is obviously on right now. And you got your battery pack right here. It is going to last you. I mean this is a good battery. It is going to last you a couple of hours. It is not going to go. You know some batteries it doesn't last very long. But this is going to last a couple of hours. It is going to give you good footage. And then obviously you got your tape in here. You got to have to pick up you don't have to get the 3CCD mini-tape but it is better picture quality if you want to. I just got the mini-tapes you know. You can get four for $20 no big deal. And those are going to last you around an hour and a half but those are the tapes. This isn't . . . this is about the video camera. So if you want to pick it up I highly recommend it. Like I said it is not the best out there. It is not like go and buy one and you think you are going to make a movie but this is definitely. I recommend it for families who want to go on vacations and want to record something. This is the camera for you. Check it out. And Panasonic is definitely a brand I recommend. Maybe if you don't want the 250 just check out Panasonic in general. I love Panasonic. It is going to do a good job so 250 Panasonic. I think you'll enjoy it.
