2009 Civil War | Ducks defeat the Beavers, 37-33

I will never, EVER, use the XHA1 “auto gain” ever ever EVER again.
Trust my first instincts for camera and exposure settings.
Film more football games… Um, practice makes perfect. (This was my first time filming college football event, and a night one at that!)
Bring 6 pin to 4 pin firewire cable.
Arrive earlier… Traffic was a bitch.
Buy zoom lens. 10 more X would have been nice.
Use a video camera that records to memory cards instead of tape.
Force myself to use manual focus ALL OF THE TIME (but have my thumb on the “push auto focus” button, just in case.)
Figure out a way to get better audio… The AKG Perception 170 would have been nice to have.
Bring a Steady Stick. The mono-pod just got in the way.
