What to buy a wedding videographer for XMAS?
over the past 27 XMAS's i seemed to have acquired everything i want: a bmx, a light saber, a walkman, socks, satsumas etc etc.
now my girlfriend is asking me to write a list of stuff i want this xmas, and i'm really stuggling. is a Letus35 Extreme a bit out of the question?! :) what do u good, imaginative people suggest? (wedding video related) |

Hi Richard,
Hmm, the imagination runs wild... Graduated lens filters Royalty-free music NetFlicks subscription And if the relationship is more "serious" <wink> maybe... Marantz PMD620 Digital Recorder iPod Touch (adhoc/quickie portable customer demos) Training materials: Digital Cinema Video Training, Hollywood Camera Work, pro wedding instructional videos, etc. Regards, Michael |

Sony PMW-EX1 that's what you need.

can i help?
a nice monopod! they rock. You can pay anything you want for one too. They start at about 30.00 units of money go up to about 400.00. great for the photo session. Find out about the tripod plate used as this could be a factor. I must get one myself. Then again, theres always this. Notice how I didn't direct you to a new one! http://cgi.ebay.com/STEADICAM-PROVID...QQcmdZViewItem |

Do you feel lucky?
Okay, if we're going to have some fun, I've got it - a mountain wingsuit! Every videographer should own one (sure beats wearing a Steadycam vest):

I used to jump out of planes (US Army paratrooper many eons ago) and I have to say Those guys are NUTS!
Wow, what a trip. Not that I would do it but it was really one of the if not the coolest thing I've seen in my life. I guess the old adage of "if God had wanted man to fly He would have put wing on man" is true. He did! Cool! Don |

I think I need to change my britches after just watching that. I got an adrenaline rush just watching that camera come within inches of the cliff.... And the music was awesome for that. :D C

looked like a small chute pack on their back for the "final approach"? I think you can see a red chute unfurl right at the end... crazy stuff!
