Re: Question about Firewire Storage
Hi Noa
I looked up the Pinnacle unit out of curiosity. My guess is that it isn't a hub - it's more of an almost mini computer - there's probably some logic inside to read from FW into a buffer and...

Re: Piano audio - raising the bar
Glad it all worked out. Piano is one of the hardest because everything depends on everything else. And the instrument is large enough to present a whole different set of challenges,

Re: Looking for Tripod around $500
Have you thought of a monopod? The Manfrotto I have puts the camera well above my eye level and I'm 6'2" - and it's close to your $ number if I remember correctly. I quite like it particularly if I'm...

Re: Canon Lens Communication Error 01
I think I have my 10-22 on the C100 at least half the time. Wonderful indoors (would be better if it were faster but the C100 is really good in low light)
Hope I don't have any issues with it!!!...

One of my engineering friends mentioned that now that we've removed lead from all our electronics, we're more susceptible to the growth of tiny metallic whiskers that can lead to shorts. No idea if...

Re: 2.4 GHz wireless mics
