Darren Carter: New CD Teaser April 26, 2009
Posted by very in : Announcement, AVCHD, Comedian, Comedy, Entertainment, Humor, iTunes, Media, Movies, News, Resources, Tech, TV , add a commentIt has been quite sometimes since the day Darren Carter recorded his upcoming CD tentatively titled “Orange American” at The Ice House Comedy Club in Pasadena. That was one run-on-sentence.
Darren is wrapping up on editing and mastering the CD and it should be out sometimes late Spring or early Summer 2009.
I’m still waiting for Darren to give a go for the video, and it will be posted on YouTube, FaceBook, MySpace, and many other places.
UPDATE: I’m posting it anyway!
In the meantime, you can get Darren Carter’s “Shadyside”:

Posted by very in : Announcement, Applications, Apps, AVCHD, Media, Movies, News, Resources, Tech , 6commentsI was planning to post Canon Vixia HG20 raw AVCHD sample until I get to play with Canon Vixia HG21. Both cameras share similar specifications with the exceptions of larger hard drive and electronic viewfinder on Canon Vixia HG21.

Canon Vixia HG10 Raw AVCHD Sample December 1, 2008
Posted by very in : Announcement, Applications, Apps, AVCHD, Media, Movies, News, Resources, Tech , 15commentsIt took me a while to get to it, but here it is as promised, Canon Vixia HG10 raw AVCHD sample. The jitters in the movie is from the vibration of the car and the speakers as I placed the camcorder on the dashboard. The Image Stabilizer in this camcorder does work some wonders.

Inside the ZIP file, there is an mountable ISO file.
For Mac OS X users, if the ISO does not mount, use Toast or any other programs until I upload a DMG file.
I will be posting Canon Vixia HG20 raw AVCHD sample soon.
UPDATE (2009.02.01):
I’ll be posting Canon Vixia HG21 raw AVCHD sample instead.

Buying Canon Vixia HV30 Hi-Def Camcorder July 2, 2008
Posted by very in : Announcement, AVCHD, Media, Movies, Resources, Reviews, Tech , add a commentI am waiting for UPS to deliver Canon Vixia HV30 that I ordered from Amazon.com. Currently I am using Panasonic HDC-SD5, Panasonic HDC-SD9, and Canon HG10 to work on multimedia projects. All three camcorders are AVCHD camcorders, which record on to SDHC or Hard Drive. Canon Vixia HV30 is an HDV Camcorder that records on to HD-MiniDV tapes.
As much as I like the AVCHD format, I found a few advantages using a tape-based camcorder. I will get into that later.
For now, I am waiting for the camcorder to arrive on July 3rd.
Delivery estimate: July 3, 2008

Canon HG10 Advanced Accessory Shoe compatible accessories:
- DM-50 Directional Stereo Microphone
Get near-professional quality sound for your movies with this shotgun stereo mic. Select from pure shotgun or shotgun + surrounding sound modes. Since the mic is powered by the camcorder’s power source, you remain cable free. Wind shields are included. - Video Flash Light VFL-1
To be used with advanced accessory shoe combination video light & flash unit. - VL-3 Video Light
The VL-3 Video Light connects to the Advanced Accessory Shoe and is powered directly by the camcorder.
Theoretically, it is possible to use both directional microphone and and the video light at the same time. Unfortunately there is only one accessory shoe in Canon HG10. It is a matter of “mounting” the microphone somewhere else. You can be creative.
