			<description><![CDATA[The software you may be looking for is called [url=http://csmc.haukinger.de/en/]CSMC[/url]. It's free, and while lacking in features, works reasonably well. I'm not sure if your G9 supports remote capture, because it's not on [url=http://capture.sourceforge.net/]this list[/url], but I would give it a shot anyways.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The new Logitech? I think you'll be the first to use it in a brickfilm, so all the weight of reviewing it for stop-motion purposes will be on you :P  . 
It looks like a nice camera with an 8MP sensor. But it looks like with the new stand that it will be really, actually almost impossible to make a steady LEGO cradle. By the looks of it the stand is just two solid straight pieces hinged in about the middle (if you lay the stand flat).]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I need RemoteCapture DC 3, I've contacted Cannon about it. I'm in the UK, so that Amazon link is no use, because I cannot find it in "amazon.co.uk".

[quote=BertL]Just the basics (spending all of the £100):
- Buy a Logitech Quickcam 9000 Pro (that's right, LegoDudez, within minutes).
[s]- Buy a[/s] [b]few[/b] [s]good lamps: desk lamps or some versatile overhead lamps.[/s]
If you're on a bigger budget, I would also buy:

[s]- A microphone (only if you plan to do voice recording or audio foley recording yourself).[/s]
[s]- A big desk (if you don't have one yet).[/s]
- Candy.[/quote]

My desk is 230 cm long and 80 cm thick. :D 
CS5 Production Premium.
I have one of [url=http://cpc.farnell.com/lloytron/l804sv/12-led-hobby-lamp/dp/LA03134]these,[/url] but I plan on getting another one, or two.
I have a USB keyboard, M-Audio Pro Tools Essentials and Soundbooth (Any help on this?).  An O.K. microphone, (maybe buy a stand for it) Good microphone, (for under £20)?

What about a camcorder?]]></description>

Canon has it's own utility that supposedly works with your camera. [url]http://download.cnet.com/Canon-RemoteCapture/3000-18489_4-199150.html[/url] As for the adapter I found one for $35.00 (USD) on amazon.

			<description><![CDATA[If I had a budget of around £240 (or even around £100) and had nothing, I would do the following (apart from buying Leggos):

[i]Just the basics (spending all of the £100):[/i]
- Buy a Logitech Quickcam 9000 Pro (that's right, LegoDudez, [i]within minutes[/i]).
- Buy a few good lamps: desk lamps or some versatile overhead lamps.
[i]If you're on a bigger budget, I would also buy:[/i]
- Some awesome-o editing software.
- A microphone (only if you plan to do voice recording or audio foley recording yourself).
- A big desk (if you don't have one yet).
- Candy.

Also, I'd keep some money in case I need to buy some specific LEGO parts or sets or for when one of my light bulbs goes out.

Now, the Quickcam 9000 Pro. It is capable of shooting at an image resolution of 1600x1200, which won't give you 1080p widescreen HD, but is a lot better than 720p HD. You might want to watch some of [url=http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=SpastikChuwawa#g/u]KG's newer films[/url] for some examples of what it is capable of. Here's a still shot taken from a test clip I made a while ago, at a 1600x900, 16:9 '900p HD' widescreen, resolution (click on it to see the full version):

[url=http://www.majhost.com/gallery/BertL/stuff2/10-07/wut.0000019.png]Full version[/url]

For capturing frames, I would recommend the free AnimatorDV Simple (taking frames) combined with the also free VirtualDub (converting to video) or, if you have a bigger budget, one of the more advanced AnimatorDV versions though make sure to don't buy an advanced version with features you'll never use.

Hope to have helped you out a bit. :)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Well after a much too long break from filming, and a year of me trying to animate with my Powershot G9, I have given up. £70 for an AC adapter, £60 for some capture program? I don't think so. It would cost £130, which is enough for a webcam AND a capture device. So, here is the real question, with a budget of around £100 and maybe £240 if really need be, what's my best option. I know in minutes I will get people saying Quickcam Pro 9000, but I need convincing. Some films look awful, some great. Please post if you know how to use the G9 for stop-motion and help me out. I really like the lenses on DSLR's and Compact cameras but are webcams good, or are old DV camcorders better?]]></description>
