			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-45" style="float: right;" title="camstudio-logo" src="http://www.screencastingsoftware.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/camstudio-logo.png" alt="camstudio-logo" width="255" height="104" />Let&#8217;s start with the #1 attribute &#8212; it&#8217;s FREE.  That being said, you will get what you paid for and  &#8212; err&#8230; umm&#8230;  you didn&#8217;t pay anything for CamStudio.</p>
<p>However, I must say that you are going to get quite a nice program here.  Have a look at the Pros and Cons you are going to get without having to shell out big bucks for an industry leading package.</p>
<h3><strong>The Pros</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>Once again &#8212; It&#8217;s Free</li>
<li> There are callouts available &#8212; arrows, banners, etc that can be integrated into the screen.</li>
<li>It is very intuitive to use &#8212; simple interface.</li>
<li>There is audio available.</li>
<li>Can shoot in AVI or SWF (Flash)</li>
</ul>
<h3><strong>The Cons</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>No post production editing &#8212; if you make a mistake you are stuck with it.</li>
<li>The video quality is average to below average.  Of course I am comparing it to the best of the best paid industry screencasting software.</li>
<li>The video quality of the Flash files seems even lower than the AVI.</li>
</ul>
<h3><strong>The Uses<br />
</strong></h3>
<p>If you are looking to shoot professional screencasts for clients, training videos or anything else that would reflect on the professionalism of your company you should not be using CamStudio.</p>
<p>If you need a quick and dirty (and yes&#8230; Free!) screen recording software to shoot internal training videos or other inward facing screen video this is a great choice.</p>
