Video cameras come of age technologically

The convergence of technologies has added numerous features and functionalities to the products. Now you have the mobiles coming with high resolution cameras. The TV, computers and internet are getting interconnected. This convergence is aptly called the ICE convergence. Though the convergence is enabling the creation of products with multiple features, some of the deeper complexities in the features that are essential for getting top quality performance have to be compromised. So, while the digital cameras are there in the mobile phones, these can not give the same quality pictures as that of the digital SLR Camera . The latter are still the most preferred ones by the serious professional photographers since these provide more control to the user to change their setting manually.

The same is true even for the Video Cameras . While you can turn the mobile camera to the video mode and capture the moving objects, these are no match for the video cameras which are singularly used for this purpose. Digital mobiles cameras are just one of the types of video cameras. The latter are broadly categorized into two types. The first type is the one which is used for the live broadcast of the videos as these are captured into the camera. This is the one which is used in the beaming live TV news, or for military purposes and even in the industries for maintaining a watch on the goings on of the different parts of the premises. The second type of the video cameras is the one which does not beam the proceedings live in real time. Rather, it records the captured images on some kind of optical device, hard disk or other storage medium. This is the most commonly used in taking the videos of the marriages or even for film production purposes.

While it is true that there is a dilution of the performance levels while incorporating different products features into one product, it is also a fact that the market of Consumer Electronics continually demands the new products. There is always an interest for these products among the masses and if reputed companies like Sony or Samsung do not keep pace with the market demand and constant product innovation in design and technologies, there is a good chance of the companies being outdone by their competitors.

Talking of video cameras, it is interesting to note that even these can now be used without the wires. The future is getting wireless and companies in the consumer electronics segment are now making products which do not make use of the wires for operations. The wireless video cameras are operated with the help of radio controls. These make use of the transmitters of different distance range of operations and the receivers. For common applications, you can use the ground to ground based systems or even the airborne systems. This innovation will help a great deal to keep your marriage parties or functions as well as your homes and office clean and clutter free.
