This is a bad idea. Don’t

This is a bad idea. Don’t do it. If your father is taking up the hobby, chances are he’s researching his own cam. Then, you run out and buy him some POS…great. He may be looking at upper end stuff for $3-4000. Now he’s supposed to smile andyell “WHOOOOOOOOOPIE!” with some 3 inch handycam you’ve bought him…Oh brother. Do yourself a favor and just forget buying anything high tech with zilch research at the last minute. This is something wives do at Christmas trying to please their hubbys…They end up in the return lane. How about a purple polka-dotted tie? ROTFLMAO!
