Kelvin Smith Library
Any equipment kit that is overdue will accrue a $5 fine per day, and overdue fines will max out at $30.
If kits are overdue for longer than 6 days, the borrowing patron's library account will be billed for the cost of the loaned kit. Returning the complete and undamaged kit to the Service Center will remove the billed charge. All that would remain are the overdue fines.
Located in the Tech Table, the Video Camera Kit can be checked out at the Service Center.
The Video Camera films clear professional videos with a 29.5 mm lens, and can capture audio with the built-in Zoom microphone. Additionally, the Camera has a photography function if required.
Alternatives: The GoPro can be a durable and versatile filming/ photo alternative if action shots are in mind. The Still Camera, additionally, has a filming ability.
