I know I may be stepping into the deep end of the pool but it'll work out in the end. And I have opted to enroll in a course on filming to help.
I just need a lift on the PC editing thing. I would like to be able to start with better YouTube stuff and work my way up from there. The DCW5 has no set focus in macro, just auto only, so it goes in and out of focus while tying. :( besides, its a 5.1 mp camera, not exactly the best tool for the job.
Anyway, I'll keep looking.
