What Do SD Cards and Pawn Stars Have in Common?

The ATEM Mini Pro is the first hardware switcher that I know of that has both recording and streaming capabilities built into the unit. This device is earthshaking and anyone who live streams is scrambling to get their hands on one.

Canon FS200 Review
I just purchased our first flash memory camcorder, the Canon FS200. I've briefly tried it out this weekend and here are some of my initial reactions.
