Lee, This is my luck again. Here I end up trying to give Africa traveling tips to the most traveled man on the forum.
Now all you must tell me is that you did bowhunting at the Campbell Lodge her in the Kalahari close to the Botswana border which belongs to my friend. Capturing in CS5 was discussed recently on this forum. If I am correct the camera has USB and HDMI out. I have read through the manual again and my understanding is still that you can not simply capture with CS5. Under System requirements for capturing they write: /For HD or SD footage stored on media from file-based camcorders, a device connected to your computer capable of reading the respective media./ No idea what that would mean for your envisaged camera. If you would get a camera that records on cards you could get a card reader and copy the footage over to the computer ( laptop during the trip) and then import it into Premiere. Have a look at the HDR-CX500E or HDR-CX150 - both cameras have a 25 x zoom as well Enjoy your trip Uwe > Uwe, > > Thanks for your comments.
