Good morning Eric. The quote is mine, on behalf of Wensleydale Camera Club committee - responding to the first of your comments. By way of background for those interested the new AV competition (along with introducing a digital projected images competition) was initially discussed in committee and then at the AGM As far as the Committee is aware the rest of the Club in general and the 7 others who have made an AV are content with what was agreed at the AGM. Hence this response to the first query you raised. This first experiment AV competition is being judged by the membership as a whole. This should put every-one on a level playing field as regards any suggestion of favoritism or prejudice. If the competition is a success an outside judge and perhaps new rules in the light of what is learned will be considered for the 2010-11 season. Digressing for any-one wanting to know more about WCC the best of our 2009 annual competition and one of the best historical photo collection of Dales activity is on the Clubs main site at http://fp.underw.f9.co.uk/wencamerab/index.htm We have an active Flickr group Wensleydale Camera Club. Many compact cameras and several recent DSLR introductions have a video facility. Video clips can be added to our Flickr site! Maybe in two years time Clubs will be discussing how to accommodate video competitions Leonard Shepherd Former member of probably the longest name in photography The Aston and Erdington Audio Visual Photographic Group.
