Backpack Broadcasting - video gear


Video Camera: Panasonic DVX100A Mini DV CAMERA
Digital Still/Video: Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX2 The latest edition to the 10 megapixel digital still arena. Its not only compact, it looks like a small camera out of the 60's while still sporting a high tech design and capacity. Whats great about this camera is its ability to capture in a HighDef Panoramic shots as well as video capture in that same wide cinema style image.
Audio Field Recorder: Video I-Pod 5.5 generation Utilizing the IPOD for more than just tuning in. I use this as an audio field recorder using Xtreme Macs Micro-Memo. The Ipod is also being used as a portable video player to show or present a glimpse of world back to all I encounter. Laptop: An old Mac Titanium Laptop with 2GB of ram along with a 1TB external Video Raid setup to handle importing uncompressed video to portable hardrives. LiveBroadcasting: WireCast is currently being tested by Brave New Earth. What can only be considered the lightest all-in-one broadcast software out there, for the MAC its the front runner.

Website Management: Joomla is a open source CMS or Content Management System. What this means for a video blogger is unlimited ability to update a website from any browser from anywhere in the world.
