best video camera for recording children image
Tish
My husband is deploying to Afghanistan, I have small children and would like to purchase a set of video cameras so that I can video the kids and and he can video small clips through the day to send us later when he has internet access. Thanks for any advice! Again I would like to reiterate that it needs to be affordable with decent quality! and miniature so it's not a pain to carry around!

If you're just looking for "little" clips to send back and forth, then I suggest either a Flip or Bloggie. The Mino series, for Flip, is slim and light weight, and I believe most of them have 720p capabilities. They record for an hour, or so, worth of filming. The Ultra series, for Flip, is a little bulkier, but records for two hours. The Flip features a USB arm, that "flips" out of the camera and allows for data transfer to the computer to allow a user to send video, and such.
The "Bloggie" series, by Sony, is a slim, lightweight camera that allows a user to record video AND takes still pictures (Even while recording video). There are two versions of the "Bloggie" camera that may interest you. The "Bloggie Touch" is the more advanced, and newer, version that released recently. The image capture is rated at 12.8 megapixels, and the recording capability is 1080p (Albeit, the larger the video, the longer it'll take to send. However, you can switch between 1080p, 720p and 200-something, which is a lightweight video). There's an older version of the "Bloggie" that does the same as the touch, but only captures 5 Megapixel still photos, but it's a little cheaper.
The Flip will run you around 120 - 200 dollars, depending on the model you purchase. The Bloggie will run you around 120 - 160, or so, dollars. Both cameras have around a 2 hour recording time, and the only big difference is the quality they record in, and the ability to take stills. Both are great for "pocket cameras."

Is it illegal in the state of California for a neighbor to videotape another neighbor without them knowing?
Surrssly
We just caught our neighbor sitting outside on his property with a video camera taping us through the fence we share. We are on our property and we like to sit in the backyard and talk. My boyfriend's father noticed it first and came to ask if we saw the same thing. My boyfriend confronted the guy and asked if there was anything we can do for him and why he had a video camera on his lap pointed at us. He said "no, and its pointed and his fence". I have a small child in the house and am afraid now to go outside or let him out. I don't want a creep to have my child on camera. Is what the neighbor doing illegal? Should I call the cops?
Answer
"We just caught our neighbor sitting outside on his property with a video camera taping us through the fence we share."
Yes, the guy is a creep.
Go to the police and discuss this with them.
Ideally they will advise you to get a restraining order against the neighbor, but you have to go to court for this.
The next time you sit in your yard, if you see him pointing a video camera towards you again call the police and have someone meet the officer at the front door and bring the officer into the back yard and to the fence.
Get your own video camera so you can record this guy while he records you.
