Re: UK TV show using GoPros.
You can use a non-certified camera for portions of a show.. Especially if there is no other camera available for such a role..

Re: reversing mirrored text
Cheapest way is attaching a small mirror (bogstandard one) to your monitor in a similar fashion that the autocue does it.. Though that would only really work with small monitors (7-10")

Re: 60i not showing as 60fps?
It is 29.97 frames per second, not 60... It has 60 (well 59.94) FIELDS per second, and 2 fields make up one FRAME. This is because it's interlaced video.

Re: SD Camera help

Do you want to use remote heads only or are fullsize cameras with operators an option as well?
