I actually bought the Barbie video kit as a joke for a Christmas gift. I like his caption better. 59.95 at Walmart right now! And it's pink for the Reese Witherspoon collection.

I liked this guy's post

"Hi Dexter,

I don't want to offend you, but I don't think that the setup you displayed would be sufficient for wedding videography. Systems like this are generally targeted at the consumer level. While they are fine for an "Uncle Charlie," you'll probably need something a little more sophisticated, if you want your clients to take you seriously.

Even as a backup, as Chris mentioned, this probably won't suffice. I'd recommend checking out some of the cameras from Mattel. Also, I believe that Fisher-Price is about to release a new 24P model that's worth checking out.

Video is an expensive vocation or hobby, pal. Sure, the $59.95 kit looks complete -- but pretty soon, you'll be begging your wife to let you borrow the credit card to buy a Lego/Spielberg movie set kit.

I found the perfect editing workstation for this setup
I hear this baby runs at 4 giggle-hz
Right Here

Addition: I just noticed that this has the keyboard shortcut keys highlighted
Bonus! Be sure to specify the "Vegas" edition when ordering

Yes - But will it do PAL? Y'know?!

Well, considering that it doesn't really do NTSC but does BARBIE pretty well, i would imagine that the European system does KEN instead of PAL. After all, KEN is BARBIE's PAL.
