Monkey Takes Manhatten
 

Yes, its true, Monkeyman and Mrs. Monkey with friends will be in Manhattan the week of June 25th. Are there any AFFers in the area that week. Lunch? Dinner? Coffee? Lay hands on ya and pray ya through?
Let me know!

We want pics!!

Love THE CITY!!

Me too. I went in 99. It's time for me to go back for another visit. I loved it!

Stay away from the Empire State Building- they don't like monkeys there....:heeheehee

hardy har har, Boom. Actually one of our friends has NEVER been to NYC, so there will be some touristy stops.

As for pics...there will be some, I'm more of a videographer though..

That is what youtube & the youtube coding is for. :)

I second that.

you know..as geeky as I am with computers, I still don't know how to inbed youtube so i stay away from it, hahahaha! Not only a nerd, but a dumb one too!!!

Well, I will be in NYC buying a new video camera, I am starting to pick up my side business a lot so you should see some NICE footage.

Just upload the videos... PM me the link... and I will embed it over here for all to enjoy. :)

How is the Septic Business there in Canada??













:D

You're pushing it okra breath!

Saweeet! Thanks! See randy, that's how we get along here on this here forum!!! Punk! hehe

Watch out for some them shady electronics dealers in the City. Make sure your camcorder has a US warranty on it... and they don't charge you for the battery.

hehe, I know all about them...I shop at B&H Photo, one of the biggest & best in the states! There are some shaaaady ones there fo sho!

You going for a Pro camera or a high end consumer camera?

I'm in the market myself. I'm looking for a good high end consumer or lower end Pro.

It's between the newer version of Canon XL or a Sony. I like the HD factor of Sony, but the interchangeble lenses of the canon. Both need to record 24 fps. I like to shoot in that mode instead of having to post edit it. I might have a BOOM of a business making church TV ads....hahahha

I'd like to find one with the features and quality of a Pro camera but had the video stored on a HDD.

I have a JVC Everio HDD camcorder now and it's ok, but the low light functionality isn't all that great. Video's fuzzy in lower light (basically anything indoors)

Are you going to B&H?

I work with mini dv or dvcam

Yes, purchasing a camera, mixer, and lighting

I like the ease of import with the HDD camera. All I have to do is drag and drop and the video is then on my computer to edit.

You probably know its owned and mostly operated by Hasidic Orthodox Jews.

An interesting observation, non-Jews does not work on the main floor. Their relegated to shipping or some obscure floor.

So?

Nothing meant by it..........just an interesting scenerio.

Have you been to the B&H in NYC?

No, I haven't. I used to work for two competitors though, in upstate NY, and in NJ.

Monk, we enjoyed a side trip to NYC while in CT on business last month. We met with someone who used to post here quite a bit, and we had a wonderful time.

Have fun!

Used to post HERE quite a bit?

Or used to post on FCF/NFCF?

Just nosey.

yes - I think so.

Gotcha.

okra or Orca?

Not that there is difference in Okra breath and Orca breath, IS there?!? :didimiss

Will this work with FCP? I don't think so. I usually mark my tape in and outs and then it imports all of my video for me. I use firewire connections with my cameras.

hehe, smells like okra, as big as orca, that's why I smart off from 3,000 miles away, hehe!

Yup. They have a great reputation too. When I'm done with them (or they with me) I will have a 4 camera live-mix rig! Woohoo!

I'll be there Monkey from the 25th to the 29th ... We gotta hang bro!!1

I don't know what FCP is. Sorry.

You're too apostolic for him Danny

It's ON BRO! I'll pm you details, woohoo!

See if J-Roc ... can join us.

this is awesome! And, hanging with y'all, folks will think I'm puerto rican, hehe!
