Useful Shooting Techniques

Advanced Operation with Two Camcorders

If video-editing is to be done, record using two camcorders so that a video with varying scenes can be created. You can try asking a close friend who has a camcorder at home.

Set the borrowed camcorder on a tripod to focus on taking close-up shots of the bride and groom. In this way, the other camcorder can be moved around to record other scenes, enabling an interesting video with changing scenes to be created through editing and compilation.

As most people own at least a digital camera nowadays, even if you are really unable to find an extra camcorder, inserting still pictures to the video at various points is also a good way to add variety. Do give it a try!

Bringing the Necessary Equipment

The necessary things to bring on a trip depends on your traveling purpose and the destination.

For overseas trips in particular, you have to think about what to bring in accordance to the local conditions.

Here are some suggestions for your consideration.

oCamcorder

Think about how many hours of shooting you will usually perform in a day. Be sure to prepare enough recording medium especially for long overseas trips.

If you are recording in SD cards, get ready the sufficient number of cards, including some for backup.

oBattery Pack

Prepare a battery pack that is ready for double the expected recording time in a day. For example, if you plan to record for 2 hours a day, prepare a battery pack that is ready for 4 hours (actual recording time).

For a day trip, you can prepare a battery with low capacity but for a long trip, do prepare a few batteries with high capacities.

oAC Adapter

The JVC AC adapter supports voltages from 110 V to 240 V, and hence can be used anywhere in the world.

Bring along the adapter if you are traveling for a long time. Charge the battery pack while sleeping so that you can record with full battery power the next day.

oPower Plug Adapter

.

The shape of the power plug varies according to countries. Be sure to check the shape of the power plug beforehand, and bring the appropriate power plug adapter.
