Possibly the last video of 2015 and I'd like it to be the last time I use the Nexus4 phone for vlogging. But have I bought the right camera? Happy New Year!!

    Come on Julian , you don't do yourself justice, when I am feeling frustrated after trying to talk to the insane Trump goons the sight of you calms me down and gives me hope for the world.
    When PBS was showing Are You Being Served every night after the news, I would say "thank heavens now for a half hour of sanity", that a what your videos do for me.
    Just joking keep up the good work

    New years resolution must surely be "fuck off the taxman"

    Good man. Nice to have you onboard. If it doesn't stay in the community it's propping up the criminal world.

    Hi Julian,
    happy new year! You should really buy an external audio recorder with microphone to do the sound, then put it together when multiplexing A/V.

    Hello

    I thoroughly enjoy your You Tube channel. I was in England about four months ago and bought a big sheet of Blu Tack at Poundland. It's great! Thanks for introducing me to it!.

    I thought your New Year's resolution might be to buy a pencil sharpener. Every time I see the point of your hand sharpened pencil being used to point out some detail, I think of my mother. She liked sharpening pencils by hand with a kitchen knife, and refused to buy a pencil sharpener for me and my siblings. Anyway keep up the interesting video output.

    Why not use a mini tri-pod ?, or put the camera right side up and use the flip screen to see what you are shooting ๐Ÿ˜•

    Happy New Year and thanks for all your videos! Would it not be quite straightforward to make up a counterbalance for the camera boom? Thrifty Scot I'm afraid! Have been inspired by a few of your episodes and am waiting for a few arrivals from Banggood et al! Keep up the good work.

    To be honest, sound from Nexus phone is much more clearer and more rich in terms of frequencies, video quality is very good too. Microphone in Coolpix doesn't capture higher frequencies very well, I think. Try to look at Casey's Neistat (guru of youtube vlogging and video shooting) "The Almost Perfect Camera" video about Canon S120 – worth considering.

    That looks like a very nice camera. I hope you can get it to work for your YouTube videos. I do like the videos you make and wish you a happy new year.

    my heart stopped beating when you said "that this is the very last video you ever make" – because I thought you will stop making videos!

    but also very very thanks for making videos about what you are doing!! I really like appreciate that and finds quite amazing, that you are sharing your knowledge with us. I hope you will make this for a long time!

    happy new year my friend!!

    If you start with patreon or something like that, I would support you!
