New Camera
I bought a Sony NSC-GC1 Net Sharing Camera on eBay tonight for just shy of $90. The idea of having a little video camera came to me after hearing more about the Flip Video. I debated between the Flip and this Sony. The Flip takes AA which is beneficial for traveling, but it has internal memory with no expansion slot. The Sony model has an internal battery but takes a Memory Stick up to 8 gigabytes. So it came down to whether battery life or a memory was more important.
I thought about what would be best for Mexico and decided that the Flip may fill up in a day or two, while the Sony could continue to shoot throughout the trip. The Sony doesn’t have great reviews and doesn’t appear to be sold by Sony anymore, but I think its sexy looks and cheap price will make a worthwhile addition. It also takes 5MP photos.
