Popular Holiday Gift Ideas from the Fairfax Video Studio

Many of the popular gadgets that are going to be hot items this holiday season directly involve web video.  How cool is that?  Whether you are recording, uploading, sharing or watching online videos this year, here are some toys to add to your Christmas list. 

• Nikon D7000 – A breakthrough DSLR from Nikon, it records 1080p video at 24 frames per second and takes 16 megapixel photos.  The first reviews say it lives up to the hype.  A bit pricey at $1,200.00, but worth it if you are serious about photography and recording sharp video.

• iPod Touch – It does everything.  It’s a full-fledged computer that takes photos, plays audio, allows you to video chat and records 720p video.  Starting at $229.00, it’s a steal for people who aren’t ready for an expensive smartphone plan.

• iPad – The older brother of the iPod Touch and iPhone, the iPad is dominating the tablet market.  No cameras, but it’s great for watching video, including movies and television.  You can take it anywhere with a $15.00 3G monthly plan.

• Smartphones – Take your pick.  Many, if not all, take photos and video, surf the web, and have cool apps available like YouTube and Netflix.  Plans usually lock you in for two years, but it’s worth it you need internet and video at your fingertips at all times.

• Google TV – It brings Internet to your television.  Apple TV operates on the same principle.  Install your Netflix app right on your TV, watch television from Hulu and play your music on your surround sound.  This technology is in its infancy still, but expect it to be popular this holiday season.

It’s not too late to get your web videos done in 2010.  We are still working hard to use video as a super effective marketing tool, even as the holidays approach.  Call us today at 877.477.STUDIO to get started today!
