video question?

[DemonLlama]

Hi all,

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but I know you guys are the best bet to answer my question, even if it is about videography.

I've been playing around with our Disney footage (see my siggie link!) and planning for the upcoming trip since I have about exhausted all the previous years' film. I would love to film some of our favorite scenes on Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Carribbean, but I know these dark rides don't translate well.

Is there a device that would allow for some kind of "night vision" that would work with a typical camcorder? I've seen some on ebay, but I really don't know how well, or even IF, it would work well for dark rides.

Anyone have any experience with this or any pointers/advice?

TIA!

If you have a Sony camcorder it may have a nightvision feature built in.

JVC and Panasonic have that feature too now. But Sony's the one with the most effective results.
