I don\'t have that up any more. That projector is the one I am selling to spudz...

Actually it is in storage.

That TV on the right blew up the week after I bought my Sammy.

I don\'t have a digital camera, so I am stuck with my video camera. It sucks, but get over it.

^^^
Did you squeeze that from 720 x 480 to 640 x 480?
Hmmm...nothing, i like its being squeeze to 720 x 540, that way you won\'t throw out of resolution and still keep the 4:3 aspect ratio for picture.

I didn\'t do anything to it. It\'s just a still frame from my video camera. Stupid little worthless 1 megapixel still from my little sony camera. I dunno if it\'s off. It looks normal though. I don\'t think the stills in my minidv are 720x486 native and squished. I think it just takes them at 640x480. I never paid attention to it since I never take stills with the thing. They are awful.

I am working on getting a digital camera soon. Our bills are fini next month, then I cna hopefully get a camera.

Although I think 8 megapixels will be stellar this summer. Wil probably wait till then.

vid,

oh, if you take digital still off the video camera, my guess your camera have a memory card (stick). Then i think its just capture it at 640 x 480. I do own a digital video camera, but it doesn\'t have a memory card. How big is your digital camera CCD?
The bigger, the better. Mine is 1/4" CCD. It suck they don\'t make any bigger CCD under $1,000. I wanted like 1/3" CCD at like $500. That would be so cool.

If you plan on buying digital camera, check out Canon Rebel...I think Adan or somebody talks about it.

I just recently calibrated my via Avia, now I\'m waiting for the break in time to be up and find myself an ISF calibrator.

Also, I traded Capcom for his old 5.1 receiver, sounds great. Just need to get a new sub now!
Got my couch...speaker stands..etc.
Was a busy week.

Are you going to give us a picture of your shaggin\' setup?

I dunno about the camera yet. I am interested in the Nikon now because I already have a nikon lens. We\'ll see. I am going to wait until the 8\'s come out and either get an 8 or see how far the 6s drop.

The Canon Rebl is about $900 with the body and additional $100 with the len. You may get it cheaper. This camera have 6 mpixels and its CMOS is bigger than any CCD i know.

Believe me man, Canon are known for their lens and great image sensor (ie, ccd and cmos). But it up to your taste actually. I am no professional camera either.
