One Project Down - New Camcorder Arrives!

Finished up a Alkaline Trio show last night - very intimate gig with only about 400 people (maybe less!) in attendance. Show was announced after a cancellation of the Starland Ballroom gig back in March 2010. Hopped on the offer to go and filming conditions were perfect, got a great seat ... no one around and just let it go. Only problem was that with my (at the time) new camcorder, Canon VIXIA HG21, I wasn't sure how to mess with the audio settings which was my only hold back. Regardless, decided to give the AK3 fans a treat and get this beauty out there.

As for my new "toy" - I just got a Panasonic HDC-TM900. A nice review can be found (here) which goes over it's specs and everything. A big PLUS to this was the new sensor which is one of, if not the best, camcorder in low-light conditions. It is also 3D capable if I decide to purchase the adapter. Can't wait to give this a try at some upcoming shows... ;)
