Trigger Street
At Paul Sedillo's urging I checked out Trigger street. It's a pretty amazing site from a technical perspective to be sure. The first film I watched was "Tenth" I loved it! The acting was superb as was the cinematography, and the subject was quite poignant. I was however dissapointed at some of the reviewers who bashed the filmmaker for using 9/11 to advance thier career. I don't aggree with them at all, in fact quite the opposite. I can see the total reality of the story, and that made it even more dramatic.

Also check out "Real True History"...so simple, but really funny.

Yeah, I thought $o.
Yes and it looks like at $695 you have to supply the palm top.
It is nice, however, to have such a lightweight, portable system. I do wonder if the display will washout in strong light. |
The only thing I dislike is that it is for Messenger and Win XP only.
Would be a lot sweeter if they had made a VFW interface and/or HTML publishing method.... Oh well. Thanks for the heads up! |
DV Expo West,

Bogen LANC Controller
I'm not sure when this Press Release was published, but came across it while searching for something else on the Bogen website.
http://www.bogenphoto.com/news/right...home&newsid=80 Has anyone used this controller? |
Huh! I didn't know Manfrotto was making such a controller. The page has a date of November 4, 2002 so it must be pretty fresh. Very interesting Ed. Thanks for sharing this.

Sigma now has a digital SLR body employing this new Foveon chip... the 10 megapixel SD9:

The hard copy images I've seen are very impressive.

They might be, but it seems like a step backwards to be using such a small chip (1.7x mag) and such a low spec camera. It looks like a bandwagon camera to me.
|
If you have streaming video on your site, just wait until you get the letter from Acacia Technologies claiming that they own the patent on that and that they want you to pay a license fee. They are going after lots of sites right now.

Not only will Texas gain control of all media as we know it, we'll have all ya'll saying howdy and eating chicken fried steak before you can say lickity-split.
Better start practicing your line dancing now. |
It's small for a DSLR camera, not-so-small for a videocamera. Boy, somebody has to be working on a videocam using a version of that chip. It has the potential to make 3-chip performance in a much smaller camera.
In the meantime, I love my GL2. |
What is the adapter supposed to do? Sorry for the novice question.

This gizmo enables you to use 35mm prime lenses on an XL1/XL1s. See ZGC's site for more info.
