As a young kid I remember my Mother taking “movies” of us with her old clunky 8mm camera. She’d badger us to move, after years of being not to move, while she was trying desperately to preserve memories, that “someday you’re going to thank me for these pictures/movies”. The cameras were clunky, the projector took forever to set up, and the “movies” were grainy with washed out colors and jerky movements.

Well, things have changed. The technology available to everyone of us is just mind blowing. We practically have ‘hollywood’ quality picture and movie technology that can fit into the palm of our hands. We can take Hi-Def video for 12 hours or more on a solid state memory device that does not wear out and will not suffer any of the issues that portable hard drives do. Today there are lenses available to the general public that give us crystal clear images while zooming up to 40 times. And there is no shaking or blurring of the images while we move in and out focusing on our desired subject.

If you think that facial recognition software is only available to CSI type shows or the Federal Government, think again. Facial recognition is available to you and me. And its good facial recognition! It can spot all of the objects in your screen that are recognized as people, then focus on them perfectly and make sure that their faces are shot in the best available settings for accurate reproduction later. And talking about seeing your handiwork later…I know you think you bought that HD Flat Panel TV to watch sports but the camera manufacturers had something different in mind.

Almost every camcorder today has a hookup to your monster TV. And because the cameras are shooting in HD resolution the playback is as good as if you were looking at broadcast TV. Amazing!

I remember when I was first learning how to take pictures with my first 35mm camera. I’d have to use my light meter to get readings of my subject, then I’d have to set the aperture and shutter speed, etc. etc. etc. What seemed like five minutes later I was ready to say “cheese”. Now like they say in the movies, fuggetahboutit! Not only are the new camcorders unbelievable powerful video cameras they are also very powerful computers that can do all of the work for you. They’ve reached the stage where, if you choose, they are point and shoot. And point and shoot with beautiful results.

My Mother would have never believed the evolution of the technology of taking “movies”. Preserving memories has evolved beyond anything she could have imagined. She would have loved it.
