Correct. I am not, nor do I aspire to imitate one.

I was mainly commenting on his charisma as a performer.

I was talking about Ed looking tired. I meant as long as Dave is on top, I'm happy.

OH, yeah, Dave has got amazing charisma, I was NOT arguing about that. You're right.

[gbranton]

Yeah but I think she's a she and you're not....lol

Ok, I'm a fan and all but I'm not connecting with him on THAT level, LOL.

Was it just me or were there times when you looked up at the screen and Dave was looking down into the camera that he was talking directly to you, looking right into your eyes (or even soul maybe?) That's part of the magic of Dave, the way he connects with you IF you let him.

Tell me about it...I'm so into it that at my show back in March when security asked me to clear the alley I thought they meant to join the band on stage...needless to say my party laughed their ass off at me...

[envy_me]

I really hope not..

Thanks. This is what I am talking about though, I had hoped for these type shots to be less blurry. I have a could of short vids and another camera to pick through so I may find more post-worthy material yet.

Can't win on every shot even with auto focus, ask the dudes that make big bucks photographing, but the final bow shot of the guys is perfect ,even if somewhat fuzzy classic shot and printed in a smaller size would probably make a great framed display pic.

I know we have a feature thread here for pics and such The RA members have recorded some killer stuff .

The camera itself has 16 gigs of space and I brought a 16 gig card as well. Thing is, for ordinary things I'm filming I don't really need it taking snapshots as the camera wishes. I'd like to have control over that. As for it doing it at the show last night I dig it as it was a pleasant surprise.

My take anywhere camera has a setting to determine the amount of resolution for capture size and I usually have that set at maximum, so I burn thru cards after a certain amount op pics and such, it is way back in tech as compared to yours and even phones these days, but it is small and zooms 5x and that is cool.

That setting sounds wierd ( auto take ramdom pic setting) ..like, open the pod bay doors HAL, wierd..lol.

Nice stuff.

NIce review, E. Too bad the venue acoustics suck ass. But then they do in most arenas.

For the DVD I am putting together, I was originally going to use the audio from a boot recorded (I think) from the 13th row on the floor, but the reverb of the venue was so prevalanet, I realized that the 2 guys up front who shot the entire show in HD had much better sound, so I am doing a 2 source merge and using that. The sound is much drier, much less room sound.
Only thing is Al's snare drum is not as loud as I would like, but the rest of it is pretty cool.

Ok folks, that's it until next year apparently (here in the US I mean).

You can get more memory cards at computer stores for cheap these days... I carry three in the case with my camera,,about 5 G if needed.

That way you can vid and still shoot with large image size and and then switch cards when full...then it will seem like work and you will wonder why you aren't getting paid...lol.
