[plug] Video cameras and video editing

[Jon Miller]

Make sure you can connect it via USB or Firewire if you have a firewire
connection.  Once its shot, plug in to the laptop run the software to
capture the contents on the camera and use your editing software to edit the
capture. Once you're happy burn it to DVD.  I would go more digital vs
analogue.

Subject: [plug] Video cameras and video editing

I'm going to be hiring a video camera for a conf I'm going to
(FOSS4G2008 in Cape Town: http://foss4g.org/) for doing interviews etc.
Not something I've done before.  Any tips as to what's what with cameras
(digital v analogue etc), and the process of getting the content into my
laptop and editing it?

Thanks,
Tim Bowden
