I managed to make another test video last night. This time testing the low light and focus distance. It looks like I need a Pro account on Video to show more than one video in HD so there is no HD option on this one. [vimeo 6015251] Results were as expected with noise in the low light setting. Only one light was on above the bar plus the neon in the background. I also tried to show the focus distance capabilities. As expected close up...
Read MoreI got the Mimo UM740 blues
Remember my plan to build a tap program and use the Mimo 7” monitor? It had a web camera on the monitor and was touch screen as well. Very cool product.

We had a few people over for a little V-day get together. We started off with some pool and darts before it led to some Guitar Hero. I fitted that cheapo fisheye lens to my Mac Book Pro and used Gawker to capture some time lapse video. I had Gawker set to take one photo every second. Pretty funny stuff.
