Thanks Chris,
I have been doing some searching but up till now can't find anything, even on e-bay, at the moment. Mic & headphone sockets seem to be a thing of the past unless one has mega bucks to spend. Pete

Lady Needs Camera
Very briefly. Our club has a potential new very keen lady member who has background in scripting and direction, however she doesn't have a camera. The club has two XM1 cameras available. One is very dodgy in the picture recording part and the other has no sound recording. This has been so for some t...

Re: E-mail article in F&VM
Ummmmmmm . . . . . Jan writes that we cannot hold back the tide and Tom wondered if I was joking! Well when that odd e-mail arrived I was with a friend even older than myself so, after our shock, we set about deciphering it. We eventually managed after a fashion but failed entirely on G8 but upon as...

E-mail article in F&VM
Lovely article by Jan Watterson on e-mails. I have a couple of stories on subject. I regularly receive e-mails from a lady up north relating to my profession of being a magician, but quite often one will vanish to where ever lost e-mails go. However I have just had a message from her forwarding to m...

Chippenham Movie & Video Club
Having just updated the videos on the CMVC site it occurs to me that with the club membership being very low and not all members being on the net, very few people may ever see the site. Therefore I thought I would put a note here with the link so that readers may, if so inclined, take a quick peep ...

You Tube oddity
Of recent weeks I have been putting several short clips onto You Tube. generally with no problem as they are short. However, in the most recent uploads instead of getting the usual SUCCESS block that comes up, I get the word ERROR. The strange thing is that the clip uploaded is there and plays OK so...

ACRONYMS
My copy of the superb FVM (Film & Video Maker) has just arrived and, like many odd, folk I flip through from the very back to start with. On page 32 a question is asked "Should I be making high-definition videos in PTE?" Errrrr . . . . What the h*** is PTE? Acromyms are all very well i...

Re: Projector Screens (again!)
Can't find any circular/round screens on the net. Can the IAC supply?
Perhaps this message can be circulated around the clubs. I can see that some folks have been drinking from damp glasses again.

small monitors for camera.
Having changed my video camera to a 16x9 model, naturally I find my 8in portable flat screen 4x3 monitor unsuitable. Has anyone experience of the current range of small widescreen TVs from (say) Maplins There is a 7in model at £50.00 which appears to be OK. I can’t afford to go to the very expensive...

Re: Projector Screens (again!)
Further to Dave Rowlands original posting, I would mention that we are both members of the same club, but not in opposition I must say. (Quite a lot of blood spilt in the club already) I like Dave Watterson’s explanation regarding the choice of a 16x9 or 4x3 screen. Very interesting. However I will ...

Got my new 'toy' now so am placing the Panasonic NV-DV2000 in the Classified to see if anyone might be interested. Best price offered can have it.

Re: Hood-Pro for cameras

Hood-Pro for cameras
As ever I always enjoy and appreciate Tom Hardwick’s excellent articles in the Film & Video Maker especially this month’s discussion on the Hood-Pro for his Sony camera Z1. I think I might be correct in thinking that the LCD screen on the Z5 is a different size to the Sony Z1? This raises the qu...

Re: Panasonic projector 3000
Thanks Tom,
I will ask the 'technical expert' holding the new projector to see what he has to say.
