I will. Hey, I just put a video on my page. It's one I did a few years ago when I was in a couple of movies made by a local director. He's moved on to Hollywood now though. Hit the big time. I hope I can go on to make some more interesting vids in the future with my Zi8. I've got some presonus gear and software. Now all I got to do is put it to some good use. Soul Street Missionaries - Black And White.

I'm using the Sony ECM-MS907, and I like it, for similar reasons. 1.I don't have to adjust the mic input level on the Zi8, and it'd not so sensitive that it picks up a lot of room noise, like my other mics do. Iwas looking for a quick and easy set up that I could just plug and play, and I found that usinh the Sony mic with the Zi8.

Let me know how the software works out for you. I'd suggest trying out the demo versions first.

Thanks djwayne, don't know why it came up as spam. Not a spammer. I'll try your suggestion, I've also been advised to try the magix sw. I've got a pro24cm that works well with the zi8. I record my own band and others with that mic. It's not as sensitive gainwise so it works well at loud band volumes at default mic gain setting. Which is a time saver as the camera reverts back to that when you cut it off then back on.

djwayne2000 (6 seconds ago) Spam Marked as spam I'm new to the video editing software game myself. I'll tell what I have though....I started out with the ArcSoft software that comes with the Zi8, and liked it but I wanted more. It works okay if you're on a budget, and spend some time learning how to use it. First off, I bought Quick time Pro, which also works but has it's limitations. It also doesn't do conversions very well, but would work in a pinch if needed. I tried Adobe's Elements but that wouldn't work with my computer. I tried Windows Movie Maker, but the files from the Zi8 camera wouldn't open.... so I looked around and found Movavi Video Suite 8, which has many features and works well for me. I'd suggest that if you don't mind paying for it.

Great vids, Can you help me? I bought a Zi8 and am looking for a software suite that I can use with it. Windows XP.

Cool videos, really nice musicianship and guitars!!!

thanks for the sub......all the best!

Thanks !! Today I'm testing out a Sony ECM-MS907 microphone. I'm thinking it sounds pretty good, plus it's stereo, and it's easy to set up, no pre-amps, soundchecks needed, just plug and play. I also bought a shock mount for it from Guitar Center. I'm really liking this set up.:)

Hello =), really glad to have stumbled across your channel!
Can't wait to see more; the music you play is so very different to what I myself would generally play - and I mean that in a good way!

Regards,

Hi, thanks for stopping in !! I'm doing lots of test video's right now, checking out YouTube and my video editing program Movavi. I just got a Kodak Zi8 video camera last week and am experimenting with it.
