I'm thinking about getting a Blackberry Playbook (love the smaller 7" size) and the fact it has great HD video capability. I know a dedicated video recorder would be better, but at $200 this could be good enough for me. I'd be it using indoors only for my audio get-togethers and to post on YouTube.

Does anyone have any experience with tablet HD Video performance? If so, could you share your opinion of the quality and perhaps easy of use?

Note: Mods - if you feel this should be moved go ahead, but I want to get opinion from the photography guys on my question.

Not at all John. I am interested in the comments as well

Picked up a 32GB Blackberry Playbook this afternoon, so I guess I'm about to find out how good the camera/video on this thing is. It's going to take a bit of time getting used to it, but I'll let you know my impressions in a few days. The few test shots I took look pretty nice so far.

I think the camera and video is actually pretty good on the Playbook, but I'm returning it. I can't see me using it for anything other than that. I guess I'm just not a tablet guy!
