[CASL-L] video cameras

[John Brakeman]

I just bought two Cannon Vixia video cameras that work amazing. My kids use
them for making PSA to show on our school TV station, promo pieces, and
projects that teachers have them working on that require this kind of
outcome. I used B and H as my vendor, and although, these cameras are a bit
more expensive, the things the students can produce with them are amazing.
I also bought tripods, really nice microphones that attach to the cameras
and a green screen (I had a little extra money this year), but money well
spent. I will let teachers take out the camera, but the students are
usually realeased to me to work with the cameras and various projects they
are constructing. Hope this helps!
