Re: OT: Test Message
A have never heard of a "pro bono" class action. First, the cost of conducting that type of litigation is enormous -- even excluding attorney fees. Second, one purpose of creating a class action is to get the court to award attorneys fees paid by the defendant to the attorneys for the class.

Re: OT: Test Message
The chronic problem I've had with using Earthlink with PDML has been that the server pool in Atlanta where my emails most often go through regularly appears on the black-hole SPAM blocking service that the PDML server uses. It's one guy SPAMMING mail lists. I've talked to Earthlink "tech support" about it and they DON'T CARE.

Re: OT: Test
That's Ok. Since I was sending from Yahoo, I expected gmail would deliver it to SPAM folders. I hoped some others might see it in their inbox or PDML folders. Which they did. What I was really looking for was whether Roadrunner would deliver it to me. It didn't, but roadrunner email does seem to be back online now. I think I just lost about 24 hours worth of messages. The only reason I still have the Yahoo is to cross-check PDML for online transactions that require you to give an email address. Thanks to all who saw it replied.

Re: OT Test your Colour IQ
Calibration matters when you want to match printer output to what you see on the screen, or when you want to make sure that images you deliver to clients are color accurate. In terms of this test, it doesn't matter because you're identifying color shift between samples. And even if the colors your looking at are not accurate, the shifts are still proportional.

The success of videophones in TV news pretty much guarantees it. :-) Broadcast quality might even be feasible once 3G mobile phone technology gets properly off the ground, although quality of service and coverage are issues with that technology.

Re: OT - test
Well I can answer that one. They don't weigh 25 lbs. The big fast zoom lens, and big heavy batteries (remember they need to run that thing for up to a couple of hours) are most of that weight. The rest is simply ruggedness. Those camcorders get thrown around and beat up a lot. Something like Adelheid's nifty Canon XL-1 (6 lbs or so) would not last 6 months in heavy news use. And the advances in technology did lighten them they used to weigh 45-50 lbs. -- Keith Whaley wrote: Open letter to Cotty! Why _ever_ do those cameras weigh 25 lbs?

Open letter to Cotty! Why _ever_ do those cameras weigh 25 lbs? You would think that with the advances in image recording technology in the past 10 years, they'd be able to shrink the size of those cameras considerably! At Portland last weekend I noticed a small remote camera perched on top of the catch fencing. The camera body was about the size of a three-pack of video tapes, and the lens assembly was around the size of a coke can. Closer inspection revealed this to be an HDTV camera. It was externally powered (which is how I first spotted it), and had no record capability, but I was still impressed by the small size as compared to a BetaCam.
Re: OT - test
On Fri, 25 Jun 2004, Cotty wrote: You asked about size. Other things that stipulate a camera's size: acquisition format (tape, basically). Betacam is made by Sony and a camera tape is physically identical in size to the old Betamax tapes you may recall that died after JVC won the domestic market in videotape all those years ago. Panasonic is another contender with its DVC Pro, and they are smaller tapes, as is Sony's own DV Cam. Surprisingly the high end cameras using these latter two formats are not much smaller than a Betacam. Hmmm, I've been playing with a Sony DCR-VX2000E lately, which is the standard camera the BBC's issuing its video journalists with right now (a video journalist is one person doing all the jobs of a reporter, camera operator, sound operator and producer...) - it's a hell of a lot lighter than beta; perhaps 12lb including a mounted shotgun mike and two-hour battery? It's not rugged though; that's probably the difference. I guess there's news and there's news :-) Betacam is definitely broadcast-quality though; the smaller formats aren't really. (Disclaimer - I now work for the BBC and therefore consider myself entirely qualified to bore the list with this kind of thing ;-) ) S
