I've been using camcorders since I first fell in love with filmmaking as a kid. All these years later, I still keep these cameras around simply for the fact that they produce footage and a shooting experience that no other type of camera offers. It's not just nostalgic, it's effortless and fun. So here's an updated run-down of how I use these cameras and capture the footage with a modern day workflow. Thanks for hangin! 😊
