Re: which camcorders to use?
to: John Freau
We use a 2 CCD Panasonic AG-460 camera with good results -- seem to be able
to get reasonably close without clipping. I used this setup to film Greg
L's big monster and had no problems -- very good output. It provides a
nice S-VHS output with high resolution for professional quality editing and
is a good tradeoff unless you want to shoot Beta but camera and equip are
expensive. A nice sturdy Bogen tripod (or equiv) is a must with this
camera.
