Thanks to jailbreaking and apps like Cycorder or iPhoneVideoRecorder for 3G we’ve been able to video record way before Apple realized it’s time to implement this feature. Real nice feature for the jailbroken devices, but what about those people who still on an EDGE of 3G and are too afraid to jailbreak (why?) ? What will they do?

First videos recorded with the new iPhone 3Gs were posted on YouTube today
One of the most interesting features of iPhone 3Gs, is that it is capable to record video. With the new 3 MP camera you can record video and edit it from within the iPhone than upload it to YouTube and other services.
This feature will be available only on the iPhone 3Gs, but im sure that somebody will port it to , at least, iPhone 3G as well. Of course to the jailbroken iPhone users, this is not such a big deal ,because we/they could record video for a long time using such 3rd party apps as CyCorder.
You probably are wondering about the quality of the video on the new iPhone 3Gs. Well today , first videos using iPhone 3Gs were posted on YouTube, so let’s take a look…
Are you using the iPhone OS 3.0 but missing the Video-Recording Interface? Why dont you enable it using this easy tutorial?
props to wgm214
NOTE: sadly it will just enable the interface. its just a novelty, as it doesn’t allow you to take videos and it once enabled you can’t even take normal pictures.

Recorded this video Friday night around 12:30 AM to test the video quality while in motion. Results are not satisfying at all. It looks like i shot it in long exposure. I really hate iPhone’s camera, it really sucks and basically if you dont have strong natural day light, its pretty much worthless.About the sound …. well…. sound capturing is not quite there in this app. In all fairness , the car i was in has a wicked sound system but, in oct. last yr i recorded an entire show ( DJ JFB and Beardyman ) at TM08BASE, with cycorder, and we had there 113.8 dB ( 150 dB is the sound of a rocket lunch and basically around 120ish dB, pain begins ), and cycorder did a really good job. Didnt think iPhone can pull that one.
About the dialog in the car …. mostly something like ” Police Police” “Just smile and wave boys. just smile and wave” . Well check the movie ( really dammn loud base distortion , check your speakers/headphones before you press play) and decide for yourself….
