i have the ipod nano 5G camera and i am sooo in love with it and i have it from january and i still cant live without him...i haved to choose btwin nano 5G and touch but i chosed the nano cuz my cousin had the touch and a friend accidentaly dropt him a little and the screen broked and i knew that apple have screed isues.
The lens size are a strong factor for the quality... now, Why does the iPhone 3GS doesn't have effects?? simple: the iPod nano needs a reason to be sold, it needs to have a function that makes him unique otherwise it wouldn't be sold that much.
the only downlide i see on the iPod Nano is that u have to be really close up to a TV if you are recording a show or video game, on a 40 inch TV you have to be about 2 ft. away to get the screen to cover all of the image
It's just for recording videos , yea trust me i have held it on my own hands and at the moment it's purpose is to record videos . So it does not 'take photos' unlike the iphone 3g
I think that people that get mad about the camera not being able to take pictures because as long as you get a clear still shot on video, you can freeze that frame in basically any program, or just play the vid full screen and do a screen shot.
I have to say, I'm growing to dislike the technologically retarded. Glad to say I am getting the Blue 16 gig Nano 5G for christmas from my sister. *EXCITED*!!
you plug it into your computer and then it charges with the plug it comes with. You can also get a thing from apple that makes it so you can charge it from a wall outlet.
I just bought this on amazon, i did not know that you could not take pictures with it. It's too late its on it's way to my house. Everything else is cool but i'm disapointed you can't take pictures. I assume when you can record you could also take pictures as well. oh well.
You are right, i am still looking forward to it. It has some cool voice features on there that actually speak out the artist's name and song back to you which i really like. I can't help but notice and I think you have a black nano right? if it's black it looks a lot better in your video than it did online. the only color that looked good was blue. Yours looks really good in black.
I JUST GOT MINE IN THE MAIL JUST NOW! You were right! The thing is awesome!!! The thing was so nice, i almost didn't want to take it out of the package. Even though it doesn't take pictures, the camera is impressivly GREAT! it's sharp! I LOVE IT! OH and you know, i can still use the nano even if it's pluged in the computer. the old one never let me do that while it's charging/syncing. You are right, it's VERY COOL! still want pictures but i am still happy with it :)
OMG WOW! I wouldn't even have noticed until you pointed that out! There is one effect called Kaleido that still moves even when the camera is not moving. Same here man, what made me buy this, the real reason was the camera. omg motion blur is awesome! I'm having the time of my life! I haven't figured it out yet but you think there is a way to mix the effects? Motion blur one minute then switch to another in the same recording?
should i get a ipod nano 5th or a ipod touch... i want the touch for the fun apps but i am really in need of a camera for utube videos becouse the ne i have now is bad audio and so-so video.. plz reply
get a ipod touch. INTERNET IS AWESOME and it works so well i would recommend it to everyone forget the nano and i wouldn't use the camera on a nano for youtube videos anyway. will look like crap
cool, i`m keeping my 30GB ,i prefer the ipod touch, for me the touch nicer. but i decided that im not going to spend money on apple products (unless it is a macbook).
Good review. Done by a fine Scotsman. May your native land be free of England. And a frosty toast to you for making a good video review. Pretty handy to have this tiny device in your pocket at "all times" because its so small to capture those odd moments we encounter. Like a tanked scotsman in the bar in a mexican hat.. LoL.
I think the New nano is just really good for the money, im thinking about getting one just to protect my iPhone its so easy to get water damage on it.
The clarity of picture are the same... mega pixels dont matter until you attempt to blow up the picture. The nano happens to have a smoother playback rate than the 3gs. Comparing a nano to a 3gs is silly. They are aimed at different targets. Get a nano and you have a 1 time payment fun lil play thing . Get a 3gs and you have a plaything, phone, and a bill to match the price u paid for it.
who doesnt want vga? you cant expect them to put an HD camera on there initially. the moment you do that a) prices go up and people start moaning and b) physical dimensions of the nano go up cause a '3gs' like camera takes up more space.
it would cost more to put in, prices would go up, people would then start moaning about the price. plus, they dont want to entirely brand the new nano is a 'digital photography' device, yet. the nano is their best selling device, for them to increase the price - it wouldnt make business sense.
VGA for video actually it's really good. This iPod does NOT takes pics. And it records at 30 frames/s!!! Dude, that's better than much modern phones nowadays.
Actually, if you do more extensive video tests, you'll soon realise that the video quality of the ipod nano 5g outperforms that of the 3GS in low-light conditions. It is far smoother (higher frame rate).
Also, the nano seems to adjust exposure much faster compared to the 3GS. I was quite shocked when i compared the videos from both devices.
you did all that shit but couldn't do video quality comparison
