I bought a small memory card reader from Frys for $6.00 which works fine. It fits into a USB slot, and accepts SD, Compact Flash, and Smart Media cards. Your PC should recognize it as a separate...

I have a Canon A710IS, which I bought after I saw a demo of the incredible videos that it takes, which are far superior to my Canon camcorder. Like you, I use the A710 for all videography now, and...

You're absolutely right - It's a camera, not a camcorder. But if it quacks like a duck, and it takes better videos than a duck, then I'm going to treat it like a duck. My camcorder is now in...

Sunset Boulevard crossing the San Diego Freeway, taken from the Getty Museum in the hills above West Los Angeles, March, 2007. Canon A710IS.

I just bought my A710 and I'm getting to know it very slowly. Problem is, the User Guide sucks. First of all, it's a very tiny manual, and those hundreds of little icons are hard to see for my...

I have very successfully used ULEAD DVD Movie Factory v3.5 to burn playable DVD's. (They are currently selling Version 6.) Since .avi video files from my digital camera can get quite large, I first...
