Is there a video camera that records single files?

->> I've been thinking for a while now that the reason I don't shoot a lot of home video is because every time I press record, it's a separate file, which is fine until I want to play the entire set of videos together without me having to select each file or me having to combine them later. Is there a consumer-level camera on the market today that allows me to record single video files through separate recording sessions? |

->> Not that I know of. However, you should check out VLC Player. It has a playlist that you can drag all your files into, then sit back and watch. |

->> You are limited to the file size of the OS that it can handle. So until and OS can handle files >4GB (most major 64bit OS's) you are stuck. |

->> Guy: I do use VLC, but I never thought of doing that. Thanks for the tip. That will help at home, but sharing with others or even uploading to YouTube is a pain. It's such a minor thing, but it's the only time I can remember where digital completely ruined the experience. |

->> MPEG Streamclip works great for "joining files" when transcoding to Pro Res. I generally use ProRes for editing. Same concept as VLC. Free, multi platform, gives great still image exports as well needed. http://www.squared5.com |
