But don’t worry, I’m getting it fixed so we can carry on filming our epic film at Christmas in the summer! (’cos everyone’s busy and the camera’s still broken)

EDIT: Has anyone got £400 spare?

Beastfilms now has a new High Definition camera (a Canon HV20 to be precise)…

As well as being HD, this camera is also much more stable than the last one due to the optical stabilization (which is much better than digital stabilization) and is also also much better at focusing and low light conditions.

Here’s a quick screenshot comparison of some of the footage from the new camera with some footage from all the other cameras we’ve ever used – you can see how BIG the image is in comparison (clicky to view actual size)
We might even put some test footage up if we get round to it.
