What do you use you camcorder for?
Well I just dropped some change on a new 2100 at BH. I will primarily be using it for theatrical/stage productions. Out of curiosity, what does everyone primarily use their camcorder for?
Theater/Stage productions 75% Home movies 20% Short films 5% |

Work.
Commercials, Teaching at a college, Documentaries, weddings, training videos, Exhibtions, and anything else that will pay the bills. I use 4 cameras: PC110, 2x PD150, DSR-300 and a Pannasonic Lipstick camera to feed one of the other cameras.

I use my cameras to make promo videos for small businesses here in Honolulu. I'm really just starting out so I'm still trying to find a niche. :-)
So far, I've been using them as training tools at the station, taping hose evolutions, rope drills, classes, etc. Lee |

Fun mostly while trying to increase the few bucks I've made on several small jobs- dance recitals and training vids.

To entertain the masses with senseless insanity.
Although now I'm getting into filming shorts that actually have a storyline...

Use an XM2 and shoot
Animal rights related footage from demos to seminars, for my animal rights website. Short films. Home movies. Not as a paying gig yet, but I hope to change that one day. |

I had been shooting material with my PDX10 for a teacher training video. That has slowed down (editing for it mostly, right now), and these days I find myself shooting various live performances, and a lot of experimentation on the side, just to further know my camera and improve my chops.

I must be the oddball here. I bought my GL2 just because I wanted a new toy :) I shoot video at the dragstrip, for Christmas, driving around town, etc. I just like to play around with video in iMovie and FCE. Sometimes use it as my webcam too!

Skiing in Canada and travel in Asia, plus a little around the old homestead and on the boat (which are kinda interchangeable).

VX2000 - weddings and corporate videos, and low light situations
GS100 - family events, business travel, and vacations My wife and I have a two year old daughter and twin boys on the way (ETA June 04) and that accounts for most of my Fuji MiniDV tapes! http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2002-...00profile2.jpg |
