iPhone 4 Indoor Video Test

The reason I chose to shoot indoors (with and without artificial light) was to better illustrate “extreme” conditions – knowing that people shoot video “inside” all the time with little regard for light sources.

Notes:

* I didn’t edit the raw footage for a reason; compare sources for yourself.
* The Evo seems to have a wider field of view compared to the iPhone.
* The iPhone audio sampling rate is 44k (64Kbps) vs 8k (12.8Kbps) on the Evo.
* Sunshine through my red curtains was difficult for each camera to handle.
* The Evo lens seems to tint blue or red at times.
* Frame rates were diminished on each device: 24fps (iPhone) vs 11fps (Evo).
* The Evo produces an MPEG-4 “3GP” file vs an MPEG-4 “MOV” file from the iPhone.
* The default Evo camera app is superior in features, but lackluster in performance.
* Research indicates the Evo upscales 320p to 720p, FWIW.

Clearly, the Evo (with default settings) doesn’t hold a candle to the iPhone 4 (with default settings). I’m sure other camera apps would force the device(s) to record differently, but this test was designed to compare phone defaults.

While the iPhone isn’t perfect, I’d certainly consider it a Flip, Kodak Zi*, and Vado killer.

You are more than welcome to upload your own tests as video responses to this.

Various types of muscle tissue are examined with respect to the basic chemistry of their operation and their arrangement within the framework of the human body through live action, animation, and x-ray motion pictures. At the same time, visual information is supported by informational features in which an exercise equipment designer explains how equipment is designed to train specific groups of opposing muscles and a physiologist reviews the differences in the chemistry and functions of fast-twitch and slow twitch muscle fibers. 12 minutes, color.

Managing Information Overload @ the Library

admin — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 02:50:05 +0000

Reference Librarian Paul St-Pierre presents an introduction to MetaLib®. Prior to the Internet the library enjoyed a near monopoly in the provision of scholarly information, and it continues to have higher quality electronic resources than the free web. However, with hundreds of vendors using different systems (Tulane subscribes to 500 databases and 30,000 e-journals), comprehensive information gathering has become more challenging. Thus researchers turn to the simplicity of Google, with its easy interface and guaranteed results of unverified quality. Enter MetaLib®, locally called “Article & Database Finder. Funded by a Technology Services Avenues to Renewal grant, this integrative library technology offers streamlined new ways of finding and managing the best available scholarly sources.
