Thanks, Tom. I read your recent article with info on the minidisc which seems to be slowly vanishing here in the USA. I now use a recorder that records to SDHC cards as .wav files. This is the ZoomH2, works well.

I have used decks for sourcing clips for some years, starting with the Sony DSR30, then a DSR11 and now a Sony HVR-M15U which is HDV/DV/DVCAM compatible. I find the response rapid and accurate when batch capturing large numbers of clips. As I work across a number of formats and standards (small cass...

For AMPS this year we agreed to accept HDV tape 16:9 both 1080i60 and 50 as we have an HDV deck that plays both and a matching monitor. No entries were received in these formats. We did have a few letterboxed entries but most entries were 4:3. The letterboxed entries werer marked as such so no probl...

The real test for judging would be to have panels made up of film knowledgeable people across a wide age range who have no connection with the n-c (amateur) world. One can imagine the mayhem this would cause as films would, I suspect, be judged in a completely different way. I once heard of a Festiv...

I believe the Sony DSR 11 has been discontinued but a used one may meet the bill. It plays and records both PAL and NTSC, take the small and full size DV cassette, has Firewire and analog i/o. I used one for 6 years of heavy work and sold it on to a studio where it continues to give good service. ne...

Have just received the reports from the Guernsey Lily and these are surely a model for all judges to aim for. BIAFF reports are very good but I think our friends in Guernsey have hit a high mark in judging/reporting. The reports are interesting, informative and, yes, even entertaining. Thanks to eve...

It will be interesting to see what happens to Avid Liquid as it does not fit into the Avid professional software series. I was an early user of EditDV, became a Beta tester, saw it go to Media 100 and then to Autodesk where it fitted neither company's philosophy and then died as Cinestream 3 when it...

DVD storage/identification
My collection of home made DVDs and CDs is now in the dozens and to save space I keep them in the thin hard cases, stored on shelves Any suggestions about an easy way of finding what I need as there is no room on the thin spines for ID? Are there any storage systems where they can be stored and easi...

Welcome Paddy! We have wandered around the world and lived in Norway, America and Hong Kong and spent time in New Zealand and Australia, (plus army time in Egypt) although originating from the UK and living there at various times. My first move is to try and find a local video/film making club altho...
