nice method BUT.... how do you know *where* to clamp your stop in order to get a frame that wil hold a picture of given dimensions? 99% of the time one needs a frame to hold a picture of given dimensions, not an arbitrary size frame. So one needs to set the *inner* size of the frame somehow....

@josvanr Yes, you are right. There is such a variety of frame materials. You need to know is the "inset" of the frame, then add the thickness of the remaining frame material. No easy way that I know of to do this, maybe others have more experience and will see this and contribute some hints. One way that works great is to use a somewhat general oversize dimension, then cut a matte to inside and picture measurements.

The problem with your audio isn't the microphone. The gain control on your camera is causing your audio to "peak". The audio recording level needs to be turned down if your camera allows you to do that.

@gronvold202 Thanks for the tip, I will check that. Hopefully I can get this ongoing issue resolved.

Thanks again ...

Whoops... Accidentally hit the send button. I was just going to mention that a shotgun mic might not be ideal for your particular application because their pick up pattern is very narrow. If you used a shotty you would need a boom operator to maintain proper positioning of the mic as you shoot. If you were thinking of placing one on a boom stand you'll likely end up disapointed with the results because even a little bit of movement will cause you to go out of the mics pick up pattern. For

@victorscope ah yes ... my agony with microphones :( I did pick up a shotty, which am using in a couple of the latest vids ... not sure I am in love with it, as you have pointed out. I think I need a "real sound guy" to pay me a visit and help me along with this. Any and all suggestions and ideas gratefully accepted ... thanks again for your input.

No: if you are 1 deg of on each corner you make, that equals 8 deg in total

@victorscope ah yes ... my agony with microphones :( I did pick up a shotty, which am using in a couple of the latest vids ... not sure I am in love with it, for reason you have pointed out. I think I need a "real sound guy" to pay me a visit one day and help me along with this sound thing. Any and all suggestions and ideas gratefully accepted ... thanks again for your input.
