    for the 904's I'm always up for trading. The only thing I've got fragged out right now is 7-8 heads of frogspawn and some leathers, but I could frag out some torches and some candy canes. Given some time, I could cut up a bunch of different softies zoa' and paly's, and if you have something rally cool to trade I'd even consider chopping up one of my Yuma Rics. PM me and we'll talk. Thanks for the compliments on the video!!!!!!!!!

    I used a canon HV30. I taped in the HDV format with manual controls of the white balance and only manual focus. On a solid tripod, this is a fairly easy setup to use. I can't stress enough about manual focus. I know it's hard on these tiny camcorders, especially since most of them don't have a mechanical ring or knob to adjust focus, but something about the lighting in these tanks just makes really difficult to get autofocus to work properly. I used Corel's I think it's xm3 pro. Not sure about the version, but it's their $90 "pro" software. It's easier than vegas for me, and doesn't require plug-ins for modern high def editing. Also it will export directly to youtube and several other websites from Corel itself. They have a free 30 day trial with excellent web based help, so it's worth a try.
