Video cameras are complex technology, which sometimes make us ask ourselves so many questions:

• What is the best camcorder for our needs?
• How to adjust optimal settings for best video quality?

Everyone seems to be having a blog these days, but as I was thinking of ways to share what I learn about shooting, editing, and publishing HD video, I wondered if maybe a blog is more flexible and feature-rich than just writing in forums… So here it goes. As much as I like to get the most out of my camcorders in this hobby of mine, I hope this irregular blog will help you achieve the same.

P.S: although blogs love to receive comments, they’re not so handy for thorough discussions. So please feel free to visit the excellent forum Sony HDV Info .com – I’ll be watching!
