I have been stressing these past few days trying to get my video setup for Sunday's trip to The Rock. My Sony picture camera does GREAT videos, but only about 3 minutes of it. I borrowed a friends VHS-C camera, made two separate mounts, one was too flimsy and the second was very secure but made the tape heads vibrate like crazy resulting in a distorted image.
So, I went to Target, dropped $100 on this cheap *** digital video camera hoping it would do the trick. So far, I am impressed. It has an MP3 player so I can play toons, a 5 megapixel camera that is pretty friggin awesome compared to my $300 Sony. Best of all, I can record over 5 hours of video on the 1gb SD card I bought to go with it (extra $50). Anyways, here is two pics and a sample vid.

Here is the setup:

Not too shabby.

Here is the sample video, btw I have to adjust the white balance and play with the microphone to get better sound, but this thing will do the trick:
