  1. I'm not sure what a pro mouth switch is but I use a tounge switch and shoot in auto focus with great results, I rarley ever get an out of focus shot.
  2. My sig line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! _____________________________________ .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  3. Maybe you should get better trained camera flyers. I have seen alot of handcam videos and have yet to see any that are even close to the quality of good outside video! I agree with others that adding a camera to the hand of a TM is just asking for trouble but I also acknowledge that it is being done hundreds of times a week without incident. _________________________________________ .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  4. With the way hyperboulic cooling towers work and there limited height (around 365ft) I would think that the turbulance around it would make for a very bad canopy ride!
  5. That was just the cooling tower.....the reactor is probley still there in a safe store mode. I work at a coal fired plant and we have 2 of those towers.
  6. I finally got around to figuring out how to shrink them. _________________________________________ .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  7. Who is going to be there Friday night......I am thinking of cooking and need an idea how much to make.
  8. Don't worry Ern..........This is an equal oportunity DZ!
  9. The local bars are entertaining but beware when you have headlights following you back to the airport............THANK GOD my car doors lock!
  10. Links sent...................I will be there Friday........sounds like a good night for a seafood boil..............and a paryt but we have to stay at the airport............I have learned that the local bars are dangerous!
  11. Just get Spence to come down and take charge of the party games! Besides his games are much safer than the ones that me and Stacey have in mind! ________________________________________ .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  12. That sounds like a challenge and I know a few females who can help me with this............remember this will be the last boogie before you married.............so leave her at home!
  13. Don't worry Ern my camera's (all 3 of them) will be up and running.........I promise not to miss anything!
  14. http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?Submit=ENE&N=2010100071+50001649&Subcategory=71&description=&srchInDesc=&minPrice=&maxPrice= They sell verbatim printables..........which is the one disk that I have the fewest problems with.
  15. I don't think I can add much as all of the above apply. Drive to the tandem........the ability to fly head-down is good..........just remember to pull out of it in time to stay with your tandem! ________________________________________ .......I hereby reject your reality and instead choose to insert my own!
  16. I made 0 jumps but managed to make the party Saturday night.........after a very enjoyable 3 1/2 hour drive. Hell just being there sat. night made the drive worth while.
  17. No I got rid of the front still mount on my FTP and mount it up top next to my 109.
  18. I have the Sigma 20 which I use for sunset loads or cloudy days............at F-1.8 it's a great buy....I don't know what they are going for now but I got mine 1 year ago for around $325 at Ritz. For tandems I usually use the kit 18-55 lens, it takes grat shots and you can't beat the weight.
  19. I made one to go on all of my tandem and AFF video's. They go on both DVD and VHS, but I edit on my PC so its as easy as opening the project. Mine is about 1:20 long.
  20. I don't know about this inhaled insulin, I was diagnosed with type 1 when I was 24.....just got out of the military and it just kinda hit me. I have been on an insulin pump for 3 years now and I don't think that the inhaler will do better than that. i work rotating 12 hour shifts and have 3 young boys so I don't eat any kind of controlled diet but with the pump I keep my A1C's between 6-8 so all in all I'm happy. When I am at the DZ on busy days I make 4-8 video jumps without eating or checking my glucose. As much as Diabetes sucks.....i think Im making the best of it.
  21. Alright.......Dells......HP's........Compac's.........I really have no intention on getting a mass produced name brand computer. As far as a service contract I think that I can fix it if it breaks. The origional point to the thread was to get a recommendation on what brand of MB to use and to those of you who offered up advise, thank you.
  22. I have been using my homebuilt PC for a few years now to edit...and I did not build it for that purpose...average edit time is 15-30 minutes on a tandem video...........BUT average render time is an additional 20 minutes per DVD (using an AMD 1800, 512 RAM) which is why I am wanting to build a new PC.....and I want to switch to Premiere (sp) as I have been using Pinnacle Studio up until now.
  23. Yea I guess I should have better phrased the origional question.......I am more looking for recomendations of manufactures. I have built a couple of systems now and have had great luck with MSI MB's but was considering something different this time and yes it will be a 939 socket and I do already have most of the parts I need.
