Great job of capturing what Prague is! Would that we still took the time to make things so lasting and beautiful. I last visited at Christmas of 1999 when the Czech Republic was still figuring out its new identity apart from the Soviets and from Slovakia, I can't imagine it's changed much except for the prices of things, so I hear. I'd go and live there in a heartbeat if it was possible. Thanks for the wonderful run down memory lane. (You seem to love the trains, huh? lol)

@threehundredwords Thanks, Prague has got VERY expensive, but it is still a pleasure to walk around...and yeah I like the trains : )

@stuartmoss I appreciate you sharing that info, Stuart, and look forward to more great footage.

@usenetposts Thank you. This camera is a Canon Legria HF S200, I tend to use that most of the time, but sometimes I use a Flip Ultra.

@stuartmoss Thanks for the reply, and may I also ask what camera you used on this? The quality is very good, and for just holding it in your hands there is very good handling, which is no doubt as much your skill as the camera. The sound is also a crisp as you like. Excellent. I think I'm subbing to your channel.

@usenetposts No, it was too cold to be collapsing and setting up a tripod. I sometimes use a mono-pole, but on this occasion held the camera in my hand.

Did you use a tripod for this?
