			<content type="html"><![CDATA[A possible [url=http://www.sony.co.uk/product/hdd-avchd-hard-disk-drive/hdr-xr520ve]option?[/url]

Which version of SMP are you using? As my version (education) only lets me shoot at 640x480 or less with my Quickcam pro 9000, and to upgrade to a [url=http://www.stopmotionpro.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=33&Itemid=48]version[/url] which allows me to film at an unlimited resolution, which also happens to be compatible with the QC's HD ability, is a substantial investment ($790).

So if I were you, I would uprgrade SMP before considering a new camera]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Howdy.

It's been a while since I've been on here, being busy with my Diploma of multimedia course and all (which I graduate next week! Woot!).

Once I've finished said course I want to get myself back into animating. And I want to do it as a higher quality than my 9k can provide.

So I'd like to ask, if it isn't to much trouble, for some advice on what camera(s) I should look at. My want list is as follows...

- compatible with stop motion pro
- widescreen
- manual controls (obviously)
- low lense, to allow more creative shots
- a VERY good resolution. I'm going to want to be able to broadcast this on TV if the opportunity arrives.
- a lot of optical zoom

I'm prepared to pay quite a lot, as long as I get what I'm paying for. I hate cutting corners if I can help it.

Thanks in advance,
Sean]]></content>
