that is annoyed when everyone on here says they were "filming" with their video cameras? All of these questions like "Which video camera will work best for me to film with." It seems like 90% of the time people say that. But the thing is...it's impossible to film with a video camera. Film is an actual image; there's a negative on FILM. All of the cameras that people on here most use (GL2, VX1000 etc) are VIDEO cameras. Everything is digitally recorded, and there is no film involved; it's a magnetic tape. So, please for the sake of my sanity try to say "shoot" instead of "film."

Example:
"I shot some sick footage in the park today." not "I filmed a lot of good stuff in the park today"

this is either one of the greatest and most beautiful forms of sarcasm, or an exact example of the ignorance that i made this thread about.

film?ing? [fil-ming] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–noun
the act or period of photographing, esp. of a motion picture.

So if you agree a photograph can be digital then you are wrong. You can argue that technically a photograph isn't digital.

haha i wasn't arguing that so dont call me an idiot. I was just saying that it's impossible "techincally" to film something with a video camera. If you actually read my post, and the responses below you might have realized that...so you're the idiot.

it doesn't even fucking matter, there's more wack things that go down in the skiing world to worry about than kids being using the incorrect term when they're shooting footy. fuck.
