Re: Screen shots from JAG

[Simon Wyndham] "You said that people wouldn't judge a shot or equipment on the day of shooting with a waveform."

No, that's not what I said, that's you paraphrasing what I said, and paraphrasing incorrectly.

Just so you know Simon, I've lived and worked professionally in Los Angeles for twenty-seven years plus years, and among other things, I happen to be a qualified video engineer. I say this not to impress you, rather to point out to you that, as a bonified professional working in a production hub like Los Angeles, calibrated equipment is the norm, and its use assumed.

Nonetheless, and I repeat, in 99% of all cases, problem video is first spotted anecdotally (i.e. by trained observers using their eyes). And, a trained observer also does not require scientific instruments to determine the validity of an argument on The HDV Forum on the Cow.

All the best to you in Worchestershire,
