Richard, "ignorant" was not my choice of words, it was Philip's. And I was polite enough to adapt.
Picture quality and digital drop-outs are two different things. Picture quality is what you get to see if all works fine and there aren't any drop outs. I also tested the camcorder in normal SD mode and still had the drop-outs and still had the poor picture quality. I already explained what I will do next with the camcorder so I am not going to explain again. Now we can go on blowing everything up and dragging in more and more and continue whining about things that were written weeks ago (o my god someone used the word "crap"!!!), but it's not going to happen, this topic's closed. Feel free to start a new thread about drop-outs, in at least two weeks from now. :-) Rieni At 28-12-2007 17:45, Richard Peoples wrote: >Hello Rieni, >First in regard to flaming, it is my opinion that saying what someone writes >is ignorant and saying they are ignorant is a pretty thin line.
