If your camera has a video setting (most do now-a-days) turn on the video setting and hit the shutter button. It should tell you it is recording. Record whatever you want (most average digital cameras will take up to a 60 second movie) hit the shutter button again when you want to stop recording. Yay!! You have a video. Now for the hard part. Downloading. It will download onto your computer just the same as your pictures do. Most computers will automatically play them with real player or some sort of media player that is built in. Or, if your computer isn't very new you may have to download a media player (most are free).
How to get it on your blog:
Upload to a pic or video host. I use photobucket 'cause it is free. Switch the setting from pic to video and click upload. Once it is uploaded it will give you three different lines of text. Go to the middle one, highlight it, then click ctrl C (at the same time of course). Then go to the blog that you are writing and switch from 'Compose' to 'Edit Html' (at the top on the right) and then either before or after all your words type this
and then click Ctrl V and then publish your blog as usual.
How to email them:
Attach them the same way you do a photo. BUT...if you use a fee email service like yahoo your video will be too big and it won't work. The way around it is to publish your video (like on your blog or a myspace profile) and then go look at it. In the bottom right corner of the video player is a 'share' button. click that then it will give you a form to fill out and it will automatically email it to whoever's email address you put in.
