In 30MB how many pictures can you have on your digital camera?

Depends what camera you have, and what you have the camera set to. Shooting in RAW on my camera, each photo is between 20 and 25MB. Shooting in JPEG you would be able to take a lot more. In small mode on my camera a photo will be about 1 MB. You be best off buying a much bigger memory card, maybe 2 GB if you won't be shooting a lot of photo's. I use a 2 GB and an 8 GB, just to make sure I have enough room when shooting gigs.

What is the best way to get the footage from a sony hdr sr10e into final cut hd?

Take the memory stick out of the camera and import your footage via USB connected card reader. Drag files from card reader to desktop. Open FCP, press command i to import footage to your project. OR: within FCP use the "log and transfer" function. If you have an earlier version of FCP you may not be able to read the footage and would need to convert the files into a more compatible codec, Apple ProRes for example.

How is a photocopy made?

Photocopies Are Made From an Original
  • When a copy is made, there must first be an original work to copy. Depending on the copier used, the original work may be virtually any size or shape, and may be only black and white or contain thousands of colors. To place the original on the copier, a user simply lifts the copier lid and placed the original face-down on the copy surface; for originals that consist of more than one page, though, some photocopiers provide a tray for stacking the multiple pages. If a tray is used, a series of rollers and conveyers pull each page onto the copying surface one at a time, then return them to the pile when the copy has been made (in such machines, a small component is inserted on the top of the stack to mark the end of the queue).
Photocopiers Take Pictures
  • When an original document or image is placed on the copy surface and the photocopier is activated, an electronic scanner is passed over the original to acquire an electronic image (also known as a digital picture) of the copied item. To illuminate the original document without creating shadows or distorting any colors in the image, a greenish light (chosen for its color accuracy) is projected onto the original as the photoimaging device passes over it. Depending on the quality or build of the photocopier, it may take as little as a second for the imaging device to pass over the original, or it may take upward of a minute for lower-priced home copiers to complete the scan.
The Photocopier Prints the Image
  • After a photocopier completes its scan of the original document, it feeds the electronic image to a printing mechanism. Depending on the make and model of the photocopier, the printing mechanism may work much like a home inkjet printer or may use commercial-quality laser printing techniques. In inkjet copiers, generally found on lower-end and consumer machines, a cartridge of ink is passed over blank copy paper; as the cartridge is moved, ink is sprayed onto the blank paper in precise increments in order to re-create the copied image. In higher-end copiers, a laser focuses light onto a drum of toner in the form of the digital image scanned in Section Two above. As the blank paper passes over the toner drum, the heated, excited toner particles adhere to the paper in a re-creation of the scanned image. Regardless of the technology used, the photo duplication--or photocopy--of the original document or image is re-created on blank copy paper and presented to the waiting user.

Why is the reason the motion picture camera was invented?

I under stand that motion picture cameras have adjustable shutters. In turn you can then adjust the aprature to keep the same exposure, just as you would with a still camera. Can you properly explain this for a motion picture camera? The reason I'm asking this question, is because they're filming a movie in my home town, and everybody never sees the camera brought in or out of the building. I told them the camera is put together. I'd like to know how a movie camera works. I understand there is a circular rotating shutter, and the film never stops. Please explain this. Thanks

How do you convert HI-8 to standard VHS?

There is no tape adaptor to convert Hi8 tapes to VHS. There does exist such a device for VHS-C tapes which many people confuse with hi8 tapes. You can however have a hi8 player ouput video into a VCR and use the VCR to record onto a VHS tape.

Connect video and audio out to the video and audio in on a VCR. Play the Hi-8 tape and hit record on the VCR.

The Hi8 format is totally different than the VHS format, so anything mechanical or the like is out of the question. The nice thing is that your Hi8 camera (or player, if you have one) has video and audio outputs that are compatible with the "standard" input/output video and audio of a VHS VCR. The trick is simply to jack the Hi8 camera or player outputs directly into the VHS VCR inputs to transfer your video over to the VHS format. If you want to monitor things, hook up the video and audio outputs of the VCR to the TV or use the RF cable connector to get the signal over to your monitor. Remember to go directly from the Hi8 unit to the VCR so you don't lose signal quality.

The jacks are almost all the standard RCA "phono" type ones, so cables aren't exotic or expensive. Use a fresh VHS tape for best results. In the not-too-distant future, you might be switching again - to a digital format. Start planning to do so in the next year. Arguably the best way to do this is to take advantage of advances in modern electronics, media and computer technology. Your computer can be upgraded by getting a video in/out card and using the onboard DVD burner (or one you upgrade to). Once digitized, the video can be stored as data, edited and then "burned" onto a DVD. DVD and CD life is a couple of hundred years. Digital data can be stored almost indefinitely, with some forethought and care. Best of luck with your video project.

Another option is to use a video transfer service. Most convert directly to DVD but some like StashSpace.Com let you watch and edit your video online before burning it to DVD. The cost to transfer a tape at StashSpace is $7.

What year was the first digital video disk introduced?

Are 10 million pixels good?

Depending on what you use it for is one matter. A 10 million pixel (10 megapixiel)camera takes great quality photos.

So yes, 10 million pixels are good.
