I jump at OSC and yes, we are going to have Mike Mullins super king air here at the 2nd annual Luah, "everyone is geting laied!" May 14-15 2005

The Canon-Nikon debate is about as old as the companies themselves, is long, sorted, and feuled by people who have thousands, if not tens of thousands of dollars invested in either system (which tends to make people suprisingly opinionated.) The truth is quality wise both make beautiful cameras that are in reality both nearly as capable in quality. I personally shoot Nikon equipment on the ground, I could go on as to why, but it's really a subjective opinion, and not relevant here. I have a Canon D60 for in the air. Why? Despite the fact that I have a lot of Nikon glass around the canon is lighter, has a faster frame rate, larger/better buffer and has a hard electric release. I'm not enthralled with it's ease of use, features, Autofocus or metering, nor have the 10D or 20D really impressed me much in these areas, but I see them of little importance for this application. In the end you have to make a decision on what tool will best fit the job you are after, I think it's the Canon line despite my love of Nikons. People here have give very good advice as well, and McGowan is absolutely right, the camera's only job is to allow the user to do his job. -Chris

A bit off topic here, but how long does it take you to turn out a tandem or student video with these NLE systems? I currently use a rather basic mixing board and would like to go all digital, but previous attempts with premiere have not been efficient (read fast) enough to be woth while. Thanks, Chris

I found a person selling them through e-bay, they can be found on e-bay, and I'm sure if you search the web you can find more. PM me if you want the contact information of where I bought mine. He was actually very nice and was able to get the remote to me quickly for the weekend. Thanks, It's the M1-c3 model Chris

Hello, Please forgive me if this might be posted elsewhere, but I thought someone might find it useful: Having a canon D60 which uses the N3 plug (same on the 20D etc) and not really liking the fact that canon wants $60 for their remote, there is a less expensive route: A company named adidt makes a remote that can be had for about $15. the remote end is rather cheap and poorly made, but the plug is the same as the canon remote with the long exposure option. Wiring: (bite witch to connector) red-red white-yellow ground-white ignore green Hope this helps someone out -Chris Hurt
