It tells practically nothing of the protective value of it. But in the absence of any other 'formal testing' what would you use as a guide?

I don't own a full face, I've used a 'fridge' from cool n groovy, but thats a long time ago now. The Z1 looks to me like the best option, I know a well known poster here who has dropped hers from about 3000ft, and it survived pretty well, so I'd opt for one of those.... -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

I used to jump in the cold, wet, fog, rain, hail etc but now I save my money (and the ache I now get in various injuries ) for better climes. But I do love the light we get on crispy cold clear winter days. One thing though folks, if you are going to jump in the cold, watch your gear, if velcro gets wet and then freezes it can really piss on your parade... -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

Early morning transatlantic vibes fer ya ....... Good luck with the promo interview, I'll miss you on the early morning UK / late night US shifts, but hell, its for the good so I'll ommm you anyway.

"so that you wont end up with a pile of 56 unlabeled 60-minute miniDVs" I should be so lucky, I came back from one event in 99 with over 60 hours of video......But because we logged it at the time, there really was no point in 'double dipping' on the logging thing. Id teh clip is outstanding, I'll generally back it up to a 'good stuff archive tape' otherwise, it just gets sealed up, and stashed somewhere safe. In skydiving I'd estimate 'good stuff' represent less than 10% of the footage.... -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

Dang, a year seems a bit over the top, but then again, I don't know much about the American legal system. I hope you can get it sorted sooner than that, the wee man will grow a lot in that year.

I don't have limitless disc space, so when I'm building a movie I do it the old fashioned way... Logging with a bit of paper and a pen. It works.....Seldom crashes, doesn't take up any Pc resources, and the slow and boring bit of editing..capturing.. is done as fast as possible. I've used this system on several big way events to keep track of video from as many as 14 camera fliers, and its useful when it comes to building the final movie. If you stash the captured clips in logical places, eg named directories such as jump #, exits, faces, plane shots, ground shots, etc etc etc, the process of building the movie becomes relatively simple. Once the movie is built, rendered, titled, backed up to tape etc I clean the system out ready for the next one. This is where the paper based system works well because you have a catalogue of your tapes, as oppsed to file locations which are only temporary. Stills titles, graphics etc are all backed up to CD rom. -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

Sounds like a kickin time is in store for Rosharron.... CDA is prety much a constant bit rate, so on those 750mb cds you will get about 72 minutes, more or less. Regardless of the original file size, it will convert to CD quality bit rate, so its more a time thing than an original file size thing. If you see what I mean. I use EasyCD creator by adaptec, and as I drop the tracks into place, there's a little bar that fills up and shows time remaining on the disc..... ph33r mI l33tn3ss!! wtf? -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.
