For those who may still be interested (or remember), the movie I was shooting with my "homebuilt" 1/2" CCD progressive-scan tapeless camera system has been submitted to Sundance in rough-cut form. The camera performed flawlessly (though the director needed occasional maintenance...).

Hi dan glad to hear from you again . you were one of the first
pioneers in the homebuilt camera world. and inspired me to make
my own components . would not be surpried if kinetta and others also took inspiration from your work. would love to see your movie if there a link.

Thanks for the kind comments, Richard.
