so far, we think it's in the black widow spider family...
and by the way, it's still alive and eating all the bugs on our porch :)

    ewwww... I hate spiders. Hey which HW cam did you use for this shot? I know you got 2 listed. :) Is this h.246 compressed? It looks awsome!
  • Mark Jensen 23 days ago
    :) i used the canon hv20 for this. just auto settings, nothing special. hv20 does a great job at closeups/macro with nothing special attached. yeah, this is H.264 MP4, average bitrate of 6Mps and peak of 8Mbps 2 pass encoding in adobe premiere pro cs3. thanks miss lieze :)

    I believe its part of the Theridiidae family
  • Jordan Megahy 23 days ago
    basically a variant to a black widow. but more cuddly and safer if bitten.

    ahhh so I can feel my skin crawl, dam i hate spiders..great footage. nice close ups i havent tried anything that close with my hv20 yet
  • Mark Jensen 9 days ago
    thx. yeah the hv20 does a nice job at closeups with just the default lens and auto settings.. just make sure you're zoomed all the way out when you do closeups.. and manual focus is key sometimes as well.
