Forget the Black Friday crowds, buy your cameras here

By Carlos Miller -...

I was actually thinking of heading out to Walmart with my cameras to see what type of action I can capture on this Black Friday.

But then I got smart.

Besides, I need to finish an extensive commercial video project, so although there are a few stories I want to write, I need to earn some money.

Speaking of which, if anybody is considering buying a camera or accessories for the holidays why not buy through Photography is Not a Crime?

All you have to do is click here and you will access B&H Photo and Video, which is the prime choice for photographers anyway. By buying your products through that link (or the one on the right sidebar), B&H will throw a few dollars my way, which will go towards the maintenance of this site.

And I won’t go into details yet, but I do have plans to expand this site for the upcoming year to get more readers involved in directly contributing news stories.

Looked on the B&H website but could not find a voice recorder small enough to hide easily. I did see a Pen w/ camera/recorder and USB input but not sure if it had sound. If I could find a pen that just had a voice recorder, that would be perfect.

P.S. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Check out this video at around 1:35 where the WalMart security guards ask Channel 7 to leave

I guess by prohibiting photography they could ensure plausible deniability since there would be no record of an incident if it did occur

walmart and other large stores do not want photography inside because of competitive pricing. I learned this many years ago as a temporary employee of Fry’s Electronics.

EdInMiami: They make digital recorders that are small enough to fit into a cigarette pack box, and smaller. Sony makes incredibly tiny high quality recorders, as well, some about 25% bigger than a pack of gum, and they almost all use the memory stick flash devices for easy transfer.

NYC,

The video ends at 1:28 and I didn’t see anything you mentioned.
