Usually to impress friends that they ahve a phone or camera.

When I used my first camcorder at around 11 or 12 years old I recorded a lot of shit with it -- but not once did I focus on stupid shit like zooming in on somebody going to get a ball. I do confess I zoomed in on a can of mountain dew once to see if the camcorder could read the side text well (it couldn't
). Recording their game of football is fine, but when one of the kids kicks the ball to far and the other goes and gets it, while the one recording it focuses in on the other kid going to get the ball, and just so happens at the pole that the kid has to go past to get the ball... lmao, priceless. As for the impress thing, yeah, I remember around here when digital cameras first came out, the first few people to own them were like gods. Being on the Bible Belt (i.e. technology free zone), I see a lot of humor in things like this. Getting something new here is just as exciting as it would be to those Mexican kids
