The Lytro cam is probably my favourite piece of tech that has come out in the last couple of years. You never have to worry about a photo being in focus. Well according to The Verge, who interviewed Lytro’s Director of Photograpy Eric Cheng, a video-capable Lytro cam is totally possible.
What with everyone having a 4K TV and/or projector at home these days, it makes sense that camera manufacturers would start rolling out new models capturing footage at a glorious resolution of 3840×2160…
Is it just me or does 5000fps really make everything more awesome? This video is actually an amalgamation of deleted footage.
Unlike the GoPro Hero 2 which needs a housing to protect it from the elements, Oregon Scientific’s ATC Mini is waterproof right out of the box. Ready to capture your extreme underwater exploits to a depth of 20m, though at a disappointing 720p.
It’s not quite as adorable as its predecessor, but the new Chobi Cam Pro manages to gain 720P video recording while making a convincing case for it being the world’s smallest HD camcorder.
Styled kind of like an old Kodak Brownie, Lomography’s first-ever video camera, the Lomokino, shoots video on ordinary rolls of 35mm film with a little crank of a handle. Capable of squeezing up to 50 seconds of footage onto a standard 36-frame roll, the finished results are a real throwback to ye olden days.
The Phantom HD Gold, a camera that brings out the life in things by capturing it in super slow motion, was used to film the oh so lovely ocean. Everything takes on a different personality in slow motion: waves look like jello, whitecaps look like cocaine and surfers, well, surfers are always awesome.
