    It had better be good, did you write a storyboard yet?
    The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.

    Damn seo, either your rich, or you've been farming for like, 150 years to afford an XH...

    Speaking of footage and storyboards....


    I've started planning a story for DC film fest next year. I could do it this year, but I want to find the right people, story, and all. Script is almost done. A few of my friends [who love to write/ are good at writing] and I have gone through like 6 or so ideas so far, veto'ing each one to find the most interesting one, then going through the story hand crafting it with different details and all to make it captivating. Honestly, I'm really optimistic, as this is really the first thing I've really planned out. I'm going for full script, storyboard, shot list, checklists, etc. I'm going to be ready for this, but expect a post in a couple weeks from me about it. I'll go over all details then. [Or pm me if you're interested!]

    Well not yet, it is going to be for the music video. I want to pick out the song, listen to the lyrics and right down all the ideas and stuff I have. Waiting on the song to be recorded in the studio first.

    Hum....RCA terminal are RCA terminals...it's odd! Should be a standard 3.5mm A/V cable with 3 RCA jack at the other end...
    Or if you use the component cable, same thing except the terminal that plug into the camcorder, which is probably not compatible with other camcorder brand...

    You have to purchase an RCA-3.5mm male adapter. This is because that DVD player's AV-in terminal does not have one of the large, yellow, circular inputs (RCA), but instead it has a small 3.5mm input (like the one on the HV30). You can buy these from most electronic hobby shops for very low price.

    Hehe, I don't think Drapeama meant test footage.

    EDIT: Btw, that song is "Hide and Seek" by Imogen Heap.

    You should really consider buying an achromat/macro lens to get rid of the subtle vigneting in each corner. I just bought a cheap one for my twoneil and...it worth every penny!
    Here's the link. With that lens and a little zoom in, you're done and have a nice clean image.

    I think the jag35pro comes with an achromat. Maybe the camera is not zoomed in enough or vignetting is due to the slr lens.
