Thanks. See the edit to my original question. Okay, I like the 16x optical zooming (didn't think about the possibility you would want a still/video camera... which I honestly still believe is a mistake because you will ABSOLUTELY need a stand of some kind to shoot for long periods <an ergonomic issue all the tapers I know who have dabbled in video... they BITCH... and if a guy who can go FOB (front of soundboard) and hand mic an entire show bitches, you consumers are fucked and video is much much more fatiguing). The audio on virtually EVERY still camera with video capability is total shit. Period the only thing you can put behind a pinhole and get CD quality audio is like a DPA (Danish Pro Audio) peanut add $600 - $1000 for the mics and reverse engineering of the camera. But most people will say "the audio sounds pretty good while recording and then, up comes a little breeze comes up and when you are playing it back, NUCLEAR WAR is what you're hear... cotton balls will help, but not as much as a video cam than has a dampening circuit built in... which I doubt any still camera will have. Otherwise, it looks okay. [:)] Thanks. Ive already ordered a couple of options for mounting. Next week will actually be fairly easy because the festival is at the beach and strapping it to the arm of the beach chair should be fine. Ill need to have some shims to angle it right depending on where I wind up sitting, and thats about it. If things work I'll upload what I can of Experience Hendrix (it looks like Vai, Johnson and Lang will make this one, no KWS) and Tedeschi Trucks Band. The Tubes are in a couple of weeks and I think they'll let me set it on a table tripod.
