Brian, I don't know if this was asked already-
V1 or c swing doesn't recomend using an HD video camera because their software doesn't work well with HD. They recomended, and I purchased a Sony mini DV camera based on the advice. The camera is sufficent, but the video is pretty grainy on my computer, and it doesn't have the shutter speed I would like. I am extremely impressed with your Master video of Phil, and I'd love to get an HD camcorder, but I'm woried about having problems with the software. Do you have any advice?
