The 8400 does acceptable videos that would have captured the atmosphere of the moment! I'm not a video enthusiast, but a couple of three second video bursts certainly added to a journey I made recently. Cheers, David Yes David, the CP5000 can do video too but I have never used it and completely forgot about it until I got home. The point I was trying to make was that it is difficult to be prepared for all situations when you are travelling and don't really know what's going to happen. -- Regards - Terry Hollis, Auckland, New Zealand replace "nospam" with "terry.hollis" to reply |

I did the same as you two years ago - I havd a 5700 and just a couple of things would have done so much better with movies - very short sequences just to illustrate a point. I forgot it could do movies. Well, I didn't actually forget, I never recognised the capability in the first place! With the 8400 I now try and remember it! I try and travel with the minimum, so having that extra ability just adds a little. Cheers, David |
