[edit] Renaming the article

Does "Video Camera" too narrowly define? It seems the Strong Sad camera is a film camera. Yes, film records video, but the term "video" is generally reserved for tape or other digital recording devices. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  04:00, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kevin's camera in Weclome Back

I recently noticed that TBC commonly use the crosshair+blinking red light+"REC" to indicate that a camera is rolling. In First Time Here? and Malloween Commercial, this happens, with "REC" appearing in a unique typeface each time. Now, the font for the camera in Weclome Back is the same font as that used by Kevin's camera in Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon. Should we really say that they are the same camera? I'm beginning to think that it's just a coincidence that the font is the same; it now seems unlikely to me that TBC were thinking specifically of "Kevin's Camera" when they made the airplane scene in Weclome Back.

[edit] Non-video cameras

Is there a list of cameras that take pictures rather than record videos? Marzipan uses one in Most in the Graveyard, and Dangeresque has a similar one in Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque. Strong Sad also has one in Baddest of the Bands, and Strong Bad can get his picture taken in any episode of SBCG4AP. 67.193.223.158 21:49, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
