Hi - I am in the process of purchasing a camera that I can use for mobile
device usability studies. It needs to work with Morae. What I want is a
camera that can catch the user's hand and finger movements over a mobile
phone and tablet as they are seated in a couch or other natural setting. I'd
like the user to be able to move freely so it might be necessary to purchase
a camera that attaches to the device. 

I have other cameras that can take longer range shots - it is the closeup
view that I need, but a close up that does not get in the way of using the
product. 

Are folks on the list using a camera they are particularly happy with? Which
cameras should be avoided for this purpose? I prefer to know about cameras
that are not pricey but still do the job. 

I will C&S for the list -

Thanks,

Kay
