 Digital Blue Movie Camera
Digital video has great potential for communicating ideas and recording learning.
Children enjoy explaining their learning using DMC cameras and showing it to an audience.
The Digital Blue Movie camera lets you:
- direct and record, capturing digital video and audio at or away from your computer;
- edit your movies with the included software for transitions between scenes;
- add special effects and animations, plus titles and credits;
- premiere and share your movies, screening them on your computer or sending them in emails;
- take hundreds of snapshots like a digital camera, even create stop-motion animated movies.
