Ah yes, the forum back before the "real names" switch. I remember "afterburnerDV" and "CameraRevolt," plus a few others if I were to put my mind to it.

I bought my first camera, the XL1s, in October of '01 after doing a search online and finding a really informative site called "The XL1s Watchdog" run by a guy named Chris Hurd. There wasn't anything else like it on the Net and that info is what sold me. :)

Like you, I found the DVinfo VX2000 Companion, which was a big help with my camera purchase.

I love it! Gorgeous dog!! I miss seeing the beautiful Watchdog, too.

Here she is again (along with her son), courtesy of archive.org....

Congrats, Chris. It's a major undertaking, and I value it highly.

Congratulations, Chris and Happy 8th Birthday to ✩DVInfo.net✩

You could blow out the candles, but low light performance might suffer.
