I don't know if is a crazy idea, but this year in a conference organized in Coruña, we rented a digital camera during a whole week, it was a nice old sony cammera DV. And after looking at the prices of nowadays DV cameras we are thinking in buying a cammera prior to renting it.
What do you think about buying the cameras: Prices in The Corte Ingles, are between 299€ and 379€ including Taxes, so buying the tripod apart, we could use them for the whole GUADEC. http://www.elcorteingles.es/multitienda/producto/producto.asp?hddref=40320 If you think this is not a good idea, i think that our rented camera was worst that actual low price ones and the quality was really good. In any case we just need and invoice to GNOME HISPANO CIF: G15996804 Facultade de Informática Campus de Elviña s/n 15071 A Coruña With the detailed concepts, after receving it aproved by Quim (who knows the GUADEC budget) i will order the bank transfer. That's all.
