    [John Heagy] “Unless there’s a forum called “Breaking cameraman of needless rituals” “

    You must have had a camera man also record 30 sec interviews in 15 minute chunks… Instead of 30 files of 30 sec interviews, you have one file 15 minutes in length with 30 30 sec interviews. Its tough to break the older guys from just “rolling on tape”. That concept of the record button being clicked off and then clicked back on to create a new file is just too difficult for some.

    Yeah that would make the list. I wish camera manufactures would include a “break” button that does the stop/start in one. Pressing stop then start does invite the possibility of the cameraman getting “out of sync” and stopping when he’s shooting and visa versa. I think we’ve all seen the 1 hr shot from inside the camera case. A “break” button would be safer.

    Unfortunately with the Ki Pro Mini being a separate recording device… this will only encourage the “keep it rolling” attitude.

    John Heagy, thanks to Microsoft`s insanity to toss it`s defective ingrammes (ingrammes? ingrahams?) from Office 2007 to browsers, internet portals, and Hotmail/Live quite lately, yours and others e- mails from your Hotmail e- mail to mine are relabeled “Conversation” and don`t go through. Please try my ka2pyq [aaaat] yahoo [dot] com e- mail, and preferrably from a non- Hotmail send, thanks. Isn`t UDF formatting that horrible security format found on the Microsoft Vista install DVD? … lest us video gatherers (makers) need protection from ourselves-
