> Think about the experience of seeing a photo of your young self (or your child at a young age) vs a video, it just doesn't compare.

this works mostly only for kids though because they change a lot, once you are adult in finalized stage the videos are much less interesting because you will see same yourself just years ago, so only the place is interesting, not really the person

but yeah, take a tons of videos of kids, it will be very valuable to them, I've never had such opportunity since during my childhood videocams were very expensive for regular families to own, so oldest video of me is me in 20s I guess

with X265 even few seconds long video takes only a bit of space and it's worth gold compared to photos
