| DVD of making and coating
I bought the camcorder today and am in contact with two experts who will help me produce the DVD for the Emulsion and Making video.
I've also contacted Sean to see if there is some way to upload snipetts of these to APUG for demo purposes.
Just an update for all interested.

| Cool. Are you filming in IR or doing an ortho emulsion? | |

| Geez, I have not even started reading the DVD manual, but I doubt if it can do IR. I'm going to probably film in light and waste an emulsion.

| You could try a night vision scope with a t-mount or c-mount adapter and an illuminator. | |

| It will be easier and less costly to waste 5 grams of silver nitrate than do all of the above. Give me a break though. The batteries are not even charged. 
Is there anxiety out there or what?

| Absolutely!
I guess that means you aren't ready to take pre-orders yet. | |

| Hmmm, apparently it is even harder for people to tell when I am pulling their legs on line than it is in person.
I am looking forward to the DVD, however. | |

| Excellent news, PE.
Good luck with the process of making your video.
Potentially a useless offer, as you say you've got video gurus on board, but if there's anything I can do to help on the video front, I'd be more than happy to.

| I have just finished coating 36 good sheets of Azo type paper for two venerable APUG Azoites! As soon as I test the paper, it goes off to them.
As soon as the darkroom is clean again, as coating makes quite a mess - I will try some taping, but I have to wait until APUG is able to accept video. Sean has been gracious enough to me to allow all of this blather about emulsions. I want to do it on his timeline so it will be done here and done right and any errors will be mine, not Sean's or APUG's. I don't want to push his schedule as he is busy enough, as am I.
I wish you all the best. I still can't figure this thing out. I took some shots, but cannot play them back yet. Oh well! I'll get there.
