    Pretty cool camera

    A couple weeks ago I picked up a cool-ass video camera. It comes with all sorts of different mounts and has a waterproof housing included. I got the 170 degree wide angle version. Best of all, I got it for $125 cash. The website lists it at $190, which is still a deal. The specs list a 2 gig SD card as the max, but I successfully used a 4 gig card for 2 hours of video.

    Some of you might know that I'm a scuba diver for the Seattle Aquarium. Last week I strapped it to my head and went diving in our 400,000 gallon underwater dome tank and had an interesting encounter with a Wolf Eel. I uploaded a 40 meg video clip to the AK FTP site.

    Once the snow hits, I'm gonna mount it on my skis.

    That's pretty cool. My kids have really been into movie making lately and they use the Flip video camera.

    I've been thinking of getting them an upgrade however. I like the looks of the new Kodak Zi6 camera. The HD video from the camera is pretty impressive and the price is good at $179.

    If you were a zombie and I had to kill you, I'd feel sad.

    Wolf eels are proof that evolution has a cruel sense of humor.

    Just sayin.
