Guest Damian_demon Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 With the end in sight for the SPV, Does anyone think a video camra will be made to plug into the existing camra (Still) slot, or is this not a possible invention :?: ?
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 It would not be practical as the connection is only a serial one, so it would be a bit too slow to be of any real use :lol:.
Guest Damian_demon Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 An idea i had was that it would have in built memory and then after filming it transfers the video across. :shock:
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Nice idea I like it :lol: now to find a someone to develop the idea :?
Guest Rustyk1 Posted June 12, 2003 Report Posted June 12, 2003 Does no-one else here have IA Album? That has a video function.?!? I beleive that the hardware provided by the SPV(eg processor) are not powerful enough to produce a decent video, using any camera. correct me if i am wrong? Also, again, correct me if i'm wrong but is this not the system the sony t68i uses for it's camera (internal memory with the option of copying accross). Rustyk
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted June 12, 2003 Report Posted June 12, 2003 A lot of people including myself have IA Album but as for video it's very poor :lol: one of the main reasons that it's slow is because the connector on the Phone is a serial one, hopefully thye new phones (when they come out) will have a faster connection.
Guest Rustyk1 Posted June 12, 2003 Report Posted June 12, 2003 Ah, right, i see your point mate. cheers for clarifying that. that would be why my files copy sooooo slowly to my fone through my cradle. Rustyk
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted June 12, 2003 Report Posted June 12, 2003 On that note, If you want to copy large files etc to your Storage card your best bet is to get a card reader. www.ebuyer.com have a 6 in 1 reader for about £10. make life easier and quicker.
Guest Rustyk1 Posted June 13, 2003 Report Posted June 13, 2003 Ah, cheers mate, i reckon i may invest in one of them!!!
Guest glynton Posted June 13, 2003 Report Posted June 13, 2003 The other Idea for a video camera would surely be to use the SDIO on the phone. That would be cool.. especially if it had a swivel head.. something like this... SDIO Camera
Guest @ngel Posted June 15, 2003 Report Posted June 15, 2003 I think this is great... How much will it cost...?
Guest Shuflie Posted June 15, 2003 Report Posted June 15, 2003 Looks like a nice idea but it has one (not very) small problem, where will you store the footage it takes? Using the SD slot for a camera means that it isn't available for a memory card and you won't fit very many pictures let alone video onto the inbuilt phone memory.
Guest @ngel Posted June 15, 2003 Report Posted June 15, 2003 that's true, but you can always store the photos you've taken and then continue taking photos... Is that right?
Guest glynton Posted June 15, 2003 Report Posted June 15, 2003 I dunno about this one, but there's one for the palm and it's £70

Need a camera with buil in memory :lol:
Guest sjp Posted June 24, 2003 Report Posted June 24, 2003 It would be great to have a video capable camera, and just reading through these posts you could have an SDIO camera with a built in card reader or a card pass through slot?! and if it was on a swivel, bonus! Maybe even a flash using a built in lithium battery! And with todays technology, it will be as big as a flash card (for the pass though slot!) If the SPV popularity grows, I'm sure there will be more 3rd party developers! Then again by that time we would be on a 2nd or 3rd generation SPV with all these features built in! Wont be supprised if they start fitting stereo speakers, firewire adaptors, bluetooth and wireless networking?! I wonder if they will use USB 2 on the next SPV? All the best! Si.
Guest daniel191 Posted July 10, 2003 Report Posted July 10, 2003 Ok so you guys ae discussing he idea of the SD cam. well I have a better Idea. Check it out why the hell doesn't some compan ymake on that has a place where you can stick your curent sd camera in.. Like a splitter. Now thats a good Idea I think.. No really now not only would you have in built memory in a way but you could also expand it, replace it and use it in the phone directly.. If you ask me there is somethin wong here... The posibility is there right, so my idea is Orange is sleaping on us since they could make a fancy SD card that would have a discrete plug at the back of it and you could plug one of these cameras in.. Hello the answeare to all our needs.... Think about it they would benefit because I'm shure all SPV owners would wont a SD card from them( meaning profits) they would bring somethin new for theyr so called customers which they care about. By the way why the hell dont they make some fancy holder with a slim cam that would fitt on the back of the phone or something.. . Hello we are in 2003 They could easily make that but waht the hell I am just giveing ideas here. I shure hope someone cares about this one because I think it is quite good. Just Imagine a sort of strap on camera. You can do it..
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted July 11, 2003 Report Posted July 11, 2003 The SPVTanager does not have SDIO support and the phone's socket at the bottom is a serial one so the above suggestions would not work as the interface is too slow.
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted July 13, 2003 Report Posted July 13, 2003 The SPV/Tanager DOES have SDIO support, there aren't any drivers for it though :)
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted July 13, 2003 Report Posted July 13, 2003 ;p http://www.developers.orange.com/forums/sh...hp?&threadid=27
Guest Damian_demon Posted July 23, 2003 Report Posted July 23, 2003 This comes of the topic abit but why doesn't there seem to be any hardware developed for the SPV, theres only the stuff you get with the phone and thats it.
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted July 23, 2003 Report Posted July 23, 2003 Hardware what sort of things were you refering to? Keyboard,headset adaptor and coming soon the camera extension cable and not forgetting Storage cards :)
