| Monday, December 31, 2007 at 1:06 PM |  | Thanks to the generosity of my company, I received a gift certificate for the local shopping mall and I put it towards an actual video camera -- a Sony Handicam. No more Daffy Duck! The sound is great, as is the picture. Unfortunately, as LiveVideo doesn't currently support 16.9 format, the really great videos I took last night at the New Bayou, here in Ottawa, will be squashed. Damn! I will see if I can do a work-around. If not, half the videos will sound great but the band will appear to have gained more...150 lbs. less |  |
