    Dirt bike guys use them. They have a ratchet similar to advancing a roll of 35mm film in a still camera. Remember those?

    Yes, you have the rights to all of the footage. What you don’t have rights to is the images of the people. So, you have a useless copyright, just like every still photographer in the USA.

    Don’t even think about selling that unless your dad is a lawyer.

    [Arnie Schlissel] “IOW, Time Warner is suing itself. We talk about America being a litigious society, but this is extreme.”

    Coke wants to sue Coke Zero for stealing their taste. Must be a normal course of business for big business.

    You know… I have a 2 million policy. Maybe I could trip over a cable that I NEGLECTED to tape down and sue the crap out of my self. Then, in court, I could confess that I’m responsible and need to settle.

    Yeah boy. I’m finally in the money. How does that song go?

    e-mail me off list. This really works and doesn’t cost hardly anything. I regret I didn’t do it when I first heard about it two years ago.

    Do you have the camera that it was recorded on? Try that first. If it was originally recorded on a camera and now you’re playing in something else, you could have a compatibility issue. That’s a major problem between formats and manufacturers. Nothing works.

    For starters, the F-900 does not need to be wrapped in ice packs in order to keep it operating.

    [Fabio Basone] “but before investing a huge wedge of cash”

    Sorry, but 8 grand is not a huge wad of cash. It’s a start. If you’re not willing to buy the unit, a bunch of batteries, cards, a zoom control, DSC charts, lens adapter, lenses, shoulder mount, and an accessory HD monitor, don’t bother with the camera.

    Hate to be this way but 10 years ago, it cost $30k to get 1/4 of the quality.

    The EX-3 kicks ass, by the way. It simply puts the HVX-200 series on the moon.

    We did this recently for one of our feature films but we needed our to rotate as it pulled up from the subject, a girl lying on a bed, writing in her diary. Here’s what we did (indoors). I made a plate very similar to the one in the drawing in Todd’s post but I made it out of 2 – 1/4″ x 3″ plates and a piece of 1″ angle iron. I put a 3/8 16 tapped hole directly in line with the center of the lens and screwed an I=bolt into it. I then screwed a 3/8′ I-hook into the ceiling. I hung a pulley from the ceiling hook. We took a piece if 3/8″ cotton rope and tied it to the I-bolt on the plate, ran it up to the ceiling, through the pulley and down to the ground. We hung the camera about 3′ above our subject, rotated it three times, held it steady and hit the record button. Once we had speed, we let go of the camera and pulled on the rope, gently. The camera rose about 6′, slowly rotating as it did so. We repeated this several times and we were done. Total cost was $12.

    What was the question again?

    just kidding. Seems like you’ve got a bottleneck somewhere.
