Your friend only got an hd cam a couple of years ago because he had no call for it? Well, his clients are all sucking wind now with their old fashioned looking footage. 4 x 3 looks like black and white when colour took over. The HD component of this discussion was settled years ago and still people argue over it. Sigh.

I used to think no one would want to see bleached assholes in high def but I was wrong.

Mike South and you were both right..people want to see this shit on their TV.

Large screen TVs are going to drive the demand or lack of it for 3D.

I got my eye on a G Slate coming out later this month. Its an android tablet and it comes with a simple 3d type camera.

And I have to say its threads like this that make me want to keep the board up and running as there is discussion and disagreement by people that really know what they are talking about.

Refreshing when I have to read about someones dog watching them blow a load or some idiot asking you to poste a picture of your cell phone.
