My favorite young lady, who had the good taste to be born on my (61st ) birthday, will be participating in a violin concert in a couple of weeks. Her parents are even more technologically challenged than I am, so I have been appointed "official videographer" for the event.
I am about to order a tripod from bhphotovideo.com, and have been reading my camera's manual carefully.
It seems that in WVGA mode my 8 GB card can record over an hour (1:16 according to the manual) of video, certainly longer than the program will last. Unfortunately there seems to be nothing in my camera's (Panasonic FZ28) manual about battery life for video. I have three batteries, one Panasonic, two third party, and will obviously charge them the morning of the concert. Anyone have a clue how long the batteries will last?
