My husband went to Walmart and purchased 2 of these My Mini Noodle Cookers. 1 for our MOTORCOACH and 1 for our CONVERSION VAN. I had a Silicone skillet handle sleeve for use with LODGE CAST IRON, tried it on the pot handle of tge My Mini and it fits really well. You do need to hold it firmly since the MY MINI POT'S HANDLE IS INSIDE OF THE LODGE SILICONE HANDLE SLEEVE. YOU CAN FEEL WHERE THE MY MINI HANDLE IS INSIDE OF THE SLEEVE... IMPORTANT TO HOLD ONTO IT THERE! Doing it makes it much less likely to burn your fingertips when using the handle. Also, the SOLO STOVE 900 POT fits perfectly on the Grill Plate of the Cooker. More volume for more cooking options! Love ❤ these little Mini appliances, ESPECIALLY this cooker!

I have the app for recording on my phone. I think as you shoot start the phone recorder and record the desired sound. Then in editing drop the video and phone recording on the editing tracks. Take out the sound for the video by turning the volume off using the controls in the edit and turn the volume on the phone track up, using the controls in the editor, sync them. But still. You should make a video about it. A lot of people would like to know how to do that.

At the end of the first portion of this video their is a message that tells you how to run the CX405 camcorder using an external power source such as an USB Battery to run the camcorder for a very long time. You can also use a "Power Bank" phone charger by connecting the power cable mounted on the side of the camcorder to the "Power Bank" using the supplied cables that come with the camcorder. I have recorded and continue to record and use this method to record 8hrs. with no problem. I just put the "Power Bank" in a little pouch or fannie pouch and hang it on the side of the tripod or if i am hand shooting I just put the fannie pouch on with the "Power Bank" in it or I will put the "Power Bank" in my front or rear pocket. You can get a good "Power Bank" for $20.00 at any store that carry them.

Good idea to use a 49mm UV to protect the lens, even if you go nowhere near the sea the open/close shutter cover on these cameras is not great & dust will get through wherever you are.. but you should do this as soon as possible and epoxying a step-up ring onto your new camcorder will kill the warranty! A better way of doing it is to get a cheap 49mm filter & remove the glass.. the filter ring should be tight push-fit onto the front (may need to file inside of filter slightly or maybe not), allowing you to use 49mm filters without invalidating your warranty.

Thank you very much for all your vids on this camera. Mine just arrived and I am so excited to start using it!
Thanks for commenting and watching. I'm sure if you watch all the videos I have on this camera you'll be able to get the most out of it. I especially like the remote control
Super ideas. tHanks for posting this. I just filmed and posted a video....I bought the camera for the zoom feature and I'm more than happy. I had no idea the camera was so small and light.
Thanks for commenting. Yes, it is delightfully small and light weights which makes it very easy to take around with you. If you're particularly interested in the zooming feature, you'll most certainly want to get yourself a small tripod and the remote control to give you great results.
Where can I get the filter on line
I have amazon product links you can click on in the description section below the video. If you want to use any filter you need to expoxy on the step up ring first.
I was waiting for Mr. Rogers to come out and change his shoes. Love the music.
I find it better than some of the loud, obnoxious stuff I hear in some videos.😃
I use this as an indoor camera using the HDMI out, but I can't switch it off without unplugging the HDMI. Bit annoying.
Can't turn the camera off? Please elaborate.
@@productreviewstv812There is no power button and I can't close the door with the HDMI plugged in. I really don't want to keep pulling the HDMI lead out so I can switch it off. Woulda been nice to have a power button, and even the auto-off gets disabled with the HDMI plugged in.
Ah I see. Try the Panasonic HC-V180K as it does have a power on/off button. If you do try it, please report your findings here so everyone will know the result. @@DaveThompsonfairlife4all
Love it! Just picked one of these up off eBay for $120. After further research, I found a model that includes filter threads on the front of the lens and a mic and headphone jack as well as Sony's own multi-interface port! The Sony HDR-CX675!!! The CX675 has all the extra bells and whistles I wanted... longer battery life too, but keeps the same amazing image quality and look of the 405!
Yes I'm familiar with that discontinued model. Glad to hear you are giving it a 2nd life. You should be able to use some various tips from my recent videos to get the most out of that camera. If you haven't already, please consider subscribing to my channel.
They're awesome little cameras and this channel orders the most concise snd user friendly videos on this I have seen. He needs more subs and views for certain
Nice mods👍👍👍
Thank You.
Nice video,can i attach a lense to my sony cx2200 camcorder
Do you mean CX220?
@@productreviewstv812 yes please
Is the UV lens protector water resistant? I thought I heard you mention that....I am using your affiliate links so I hope they still offer you commission. Tjis is the easiest to understand video, offering us new again beginners going back to camcorders a big help in the right direction. Thank you.
Any filter over the front of the lens will certainly add water resistance but I would not call it waterproof exactly. It's a lot better than not having one installed. Thank You for the kind comment.
@@productreviewstv812 Thank you bunches!! Glad I understood properly.
Hello again. I bought the step-up ring from the link and apparently it's the wrong size? Also the UV lens which works with the ring, but not the camera? I just wanted you to know in case the links need to be changed. I also got the light. Can you please tell me what that piece is that you attached to the top? I presume that is to attach the light? Sorry for all rhe questions, you're the most helpful.
@@highstrangeness1824 it's a 48 to 49 mm step up bring. It needs to be epoxy onto the front. And the UV filter is 49 mm
@@highstrangeness1824 the step I bring is 48 to 49 mm. It needs to be attached with epoxy. Did you? Refilter is 49 mm?
Your videos for this handycam are fantastic. I bought this camera years ago and loved it but was recently told I need a polorized lens to better capture my kids water polo games. Your easy and inexpensive mods just saved me from buying another video cam! Thank you. 😊
Thank You. A circular polarizer is what I use. You rotate it to cut the glare off the water.
Could you theoretically attach a different lens onto the step up ring ? like a fisheye perhaps .
I'm not aware of a lens that uses a filter mount.
You could fit a Cokin A type filter housing with a 49mm adapter and use any number of Cokin special effect filters in it but i wouldn't bother trying to use an add-on lens, the image quality would be crap.
Pretty genius hacks to be honest, I just might do the same with my cx405.
Thank You for watching and your commentary. Feel free to return and let everyone know if you do any of them.
