Just an update. Pulled the HX620 off of the case and did the paper clip test numerous times with the PS loaded by a fan. Nothing. Did the same on an older Antec 430 and the fan started so I think I know what I was doing :) and that my HX620 is dead.
Need help on another thing. I do have a...
Hi!
So I turned on my rig this morning to check emails. Booted up to XP and just sat idle for like 15mins while I talked to the wifey. Suddenly, the PC just shut down by itself then we smell something burning. I was like WTF!!! I dunno but my first instinct was to restart it to see what...
Since my 8th grader did a report on the Pacific War, and have read bits and pieces of the European Theatre.
Now he's asking me if there's a move that I can recommend that he can watch to see both the Pacific and European side. I've seen some in the past but can't remember which ones are the...
Thanks all.
I think I'm going to shoot for 1/3 - 1/2. Gonna have to get the couch in there and see how it looks. Yeah, looking up on the screen to watch movies is very tiring on the neck as that's how it is now on the temporary stand with the exact couch we're going to use in the family room.
Hi there!
Almost got my family room done. I have a tilting wall mount for the tv and was wondering how high off the floor tv is supposed to be mounted?
Is my understanding correct that the vertical center of the tv should be at eye-level for best viewing comfort?
Thanks in advance
Man, am I full of dumb questions today {guess that's what happens when you don't get to sleep finishing up the family room so it's ready for the electrician to hook the power up :P)
So I'm totally convinced to just get the receiver and now just deciding which one. Got DirecTV, DVD and soon BD...
Wow! Thanks both for the quick response and sharing your insight. Extremely helpful, +reps to both of ya.
That's one of the main purposes of my post. The HT-S6100 comes with speakers and sub but since my Minuettes have 4 satellites, 1 center and 1 sub, I can save $$$ as you said and just...
Hi All,
Just finishing up my family room, smallish, roughly 12x14, so viewing distance can be between 10-12ft. When we did the rough in, we just wired 2 surround and 1 back speaker. I don't know why I did that but one reason I have is due to the layout of the entry into the room, only 1 back...
If I'm not mistaken, on the highest setting (FXP; 1920x1080;17Mbps), I can record 1hr2min on an 8GB card so that's roughly 129MB/min
Edit: Nevermind, just realized you were asking about the HFS-100 and not the HF-100. Sorry. But from Canon's website, HFS100 @ 24Mbps will do 2hr55min on a...
The 560B works out better than I expected. I actually got 2 monopods to begin with, one just the plain ole monopod and the 560B. The stability the 560B provides is much much better than a regular monopod as you don't have to exert extra effort to balance out the rig. The 560B's base has a...
Kaido, great post. The time and effort you put into writing this post is much appreciated.
I picked up a HF100 a month ago based on your advice and responses to forum questions. Along with that, I also picked up the Velbon DV-7000, GorillaPod and other bits {guess from who's recommendation...
I have a HF100 as well as a Velbon DV-7000 tripod. While the Velbon is great, smooth pan/tilts, I find it rather bulky for the tiny HF100 when on the move or even shooting school shows from the benches.
So am contemplating to getting a monopod. Found a few but the Manfrotto 560B...
