poetry is a work of expresion, comes in good with style and perfection, with paper and pen you begin to write, the poetic way of non violent fight, poetry is a settled state of mind, concentration in the soul is what your tring to find.

I have one of those. Was it the 20$ one? That's the one I have. I've had it for about 7 months now, and it's already starting to get blurry. I'd recommend a Veo, except a more expensive one. I'm sure those are bound to last a lot longer.

Any camera you buy in the $30 region will have a fairly chep sensor in it and as such you can't expect great quality. As with most things in life, you get what you pay for.

Most webcams run at around 30fps, which is more than enough for a smooth picture. The thing that will slow it down is your computer. If you want a totally smooth picture that moves as you move, you're going to need quite a lot of processing power.




A bboy without style, is like a broken pencil.

There's just no point.

Well, I never had the chance to make movies. But when I did, I got to make a 8 second one. It wasn't that great. The frames were a little slow. I think you can set your settings to make the video longer. Play with it a little.
