Now for The Mac addict -- a Big Idea in a small package is The Apple MacIntosh "Powerbook" for picture
and video editing. The Mac computers are primary editing machines for many computer users because they can operate both Imovie and Final Cut Pro video editing softwares. Comes also with a 17 inch screen. Best to begin around $3000 here too. |

Big Gift Ideas
|
before and after
the holidays |
Big Gift Ideas can be in any variety of subjects. But what a Big Gift Idea is about is it's something that comes with a
lot of Heart or with much feeling. As in the example of the Disney Throw Blanket shown above. As a gift it is big in size and when wrapped around a person's body ... it is Big in warmth. Yet it does not necessarily have to be big in price tag. The Disney Stores which are at hand in many big cities around the World have many Big Ideas. Like a Winnie the Pooh Bear that is three feet high when sitting on the floor. For a stuffed animal that is BIG ! |
Here is another big gift idea. Not because it is BIG in size. But because it is Big
in usefulness. If you have a still camera person or a video enthusiast on your list they can always use a chic and rugged carrying case for their equipment. And you will find this is a Big Gift Idea because what else it will be is Big in the appreciation department. So the real message is that sometimes "size really does not matter." It is all about the item given. These equipment cases are from M Rock. Featured top left is: The Everglade and right is the Yellowstone bag. M-Rock ranges in price from $20 to $60 and are available at many pro photo supply stores or contact www.M-Rock.com |
Big Ideas in little packages --
|

|
Now the 3 pieces above - the black bag, the armrest,
and the Sony HDRX-1 Hi Definition video handycam - are separate items but they could be put together as one package to make a complete unit for about $4000. |
The world's first consumer 1080i high definition camcorder,
the Sony Handycam ® HDR-FX1. A revolution in form and function. The HDR-FX1 allows you to play and record interlaced high definition video at resolutions up to 1440 x 1080 for professional quality video with vivid colors and striking detail. It even offers the ability to switch to standard DV recording and playback as the situation warrants. |

This is a big idea. But that is all it is because it appears
it can't be found. It is the 4.5 megapixel Polaroid x530 digital camera with the 3 layer Foveon X3 Chip. Priced under $400 USD. The only problem is it seems the only place where you may be able to get it is in the United Kingdom. |
Now to go with the great video gear -- a great laptop is a Big idea in a small package.
The faster and more powerful the PC machine is the easier to edit video anywhere. Of course there are people who know Sony is a front runner in the world of Video. |
