Eclair Cameras:

[eric jarvies <eric@earthid.org>]

hello everyone,

i have finally decided to have the acl II i purchased(which the seller 
FINALLY got in touch with me ... sergey, the russian ebay guy) sent 
directly to andrew at azsprectrum to have a s16 color video tap 
installed.  however, i would also like ot have an s16 conversion 
performed to the camera.  would it be better to have azspecrum perform 
the tap first, then have the s16 conversion done second?  or the other 
way around?

also, regarding the s16 conversion ... i noticed that lee boshner in the 
uk does a conversion for about $600.00.  could some people give me some 
heads-up regarding what acl s16 conversion is truly the best in terms of 
quality, dependability, and price(in your own honest opinion based on 
your own personal experiences)?

i need to know this info sooner then later because i have ot have the 
camera shipped from russia tomorrow or the next day, and would like to 
send it directly to the s16 conversion place or azspectrum ... but need 
to know what work should be performed first.

and one final question ... i was considering purchasing one of those 
little portable dv recording decks with the 5" display as my monitor for 
the video tap so i could record my scenes to dv so i could essentially 
see my filmed scenes without having to send the film off for processing 
and transfer.  has anyone done this, and if so, could you tell me if the 
quality is acceptable?  it seems silly to purcase a $500 LCD only 
display when i can spend $800.00 for an LCD AND dv recorder.

thanks for your help.
