iPod Nano Video Test #1

[liamzuid]

And can you take photo's with it.

Kind of stupid question but to be sure because my friend bought a phone and it could film but it couldn't take pictures...

[ch0colatefreak]

[lololzak]

SAN FRANSICO?

[OmfgGisl3n3]

how do you put videos from your ipod nano 5g from ipod to youtube i got mine in its hard!!!

[asiaqueen4ever]

plug your ipod up and go to upload on youtube then find the video in your ipod folder

[OmfgGisl3n3]

@asiaqueen4ever ^0^ thanks ill try ^^

[NiamhByrne64264]

why does it have video but not camera?

[Sonic6293]

cuz it's a VGA camera. It would be too expensive to put a camera of a higher resolution and expect to get a nice profit at the same price...

[NiamhByrne64264]

oh..thanks! :)

[GEARHEADGUY92]

because it's an Apple

[depro9]

Yeah great cam, as long as you don't move? Apple FAIL!

[tluth]

Yeah, really. I mean, heck, if it can't compete head-to-head with a $30k HD cam, what good is it, eh?

[ajones2009]

Exactly. It's too bad Jobs raised expectations when he said it's compared it to the Flip.

[madmac66]

oooh. Very jello, and it looks like it has the Median filter all over it. I guess its pretty amazing considering it came from an iPod the size of a postage stamp. But for real worls use, I think I'll upgrade my OG Flip to a minoHD or Zi8

[STOPurWhining]

Median filter? help...

[madmac66]

In Photoshop and AfterEffects there is a filter that interpolates and averages the color between adjacent pixels. It gives a slightly to very posterized look, removing all detail in the color

[twalker294]

I expected it to be as good as the video from the 3GS. It isn't.

[gehwe]

The flip isn't a MP3, there's no reason to have to compare the two.

[twalker294]

I don't know what you mean by "the Flip isn't an MP3." Do you mean it's not a music player? And the reason to compare the two is that Jobs compared the two.

[ajones2009]

Jobs is the one who compared the two. LMAO

[gehwe]

I was speaking openly.

[gavinovz]

Its an Alex-finger.

[ezravision]

my flip mino HD is secure and happy for now.

[kcbigring]

wow dizzying ... not good

[TripTucker]

I had no idea what you meant wen you tweeted that it was Jello-like. Now I see. Can that be fixed in firmware or is it hardware limitations?

[thecleanfreak]

Quite well for H.264 at 640x480. Just curious if there's going to be an in camera sharpening firmware update because the edges seem a bit dull. Alex are you thinking of building a Red Rock rig w/ Ped for this? :)

[ajones2009]

I'm sorry but this just looks poor. The flip does a far better job IMO. The camera roll is horrible. Hopefully the Touch gets a much better camera.

[LocalOnlineNewsTV]

I agree.. The framerate is great but the shutter roll is terrible. It would be interesting to see a steady shot of passing traffic to see how fast moving objects look given the limitations of the sensor.

[wrockgod]

I'd love to see the full non-flash compressed quality. Looks like a challenge for a case maker. Make a case with built in stabilization! Anyways, thanks Alex for being the early adopter!

[twiggtom]

The motion roll is not great, I'd love to see how good it can be if used in a more stationary position. (Thanks for sharing Alex)

[mrparis]

Wow, nice quality for such a small device.

[nickux17]

Based on the lens location, I have a feeling we're going to see a lot of videos with a thumb on the right-side of the shot.

[BananasWithThat]

Wow! The quality's pretty good for that little thing!
