Re: [guadec-list] Cameras and machines for streaming

[Chema Casanova Crespo <jcasanova udc es>]

I don't know if is a crazy idea, but this year in a conference organized
in Coruña, we rented a digital camera during a whole week, it was a nice
old sony cammera DV. And after looking at the prices of nowadays DV
cameras we are thinking in buying a cammera prior to renting it.

What do you think about buying the cameras:

Prices in The Corte Ingles, are between 299€ and 379€ including Taxes,
so buying the tripod apart, we could use them for the whole GUADEC.

If you think this is not a good idea, i think that our rented camera was
worst that actual low price ones and the quality was really good.

In any case we just need and invoice to 

GNOME HISPANO
CIF: G15996804
Facultade de Informática
Campus de Elviña s/n
15071 A Coruña

With the detailed concepts, after receving it aproved by Quim (who knows
the GUADEC budget) i will order the bank transfer.

That's all.
