Camcorder users. A tip.

[carlton23]

This evening I had a very BRIGHT idea, which works very well. I strapped one of these modern flashlights that has 24 tiny bulbs to the viewer of the camcorder and took and indoor photo of my son for his renewable driving licence, and it works like a flashgun. I bought the light from the cheap stores that are opening up all over the country. £3.99.

I just turn the big light on.

Brilliant idea Bill - bet you got a nice sharp photo, well done.

Fair enough Postdog, but there aren`t big lights everywhere, in or out doors.

[carlton23]

Thankyou ttfn, I sure did.

I also use a similar type of lamp I bought from Wilkinson`s, only this on is like a bendy desktop lamp with only 12 small bulbs but adequate for helping my Christmas flowering Hyacinths these dark nights.

There's a big bright light up in the sky, and it's there every day! ;-)

Smarta** heathfield see's the Sun at night, ......no mate that's the Moon,....... when,........ and if it's out. I'm trying to inform folk's with cam's that it is just an easy tip for indoor night photo's, as these new type bulbs are next to useless.
