Basic use of the cameras. See the rest of the Camera Tutorial for the process of filming with our cameras:

Our pal Howard.

This was assigned the name at a station meeting vote. Perhaps an unwise choice, particularly if we ever get a YSTV member named Howard. It is powered by a normal four-pin XLR, and has a composite video out. It is controlled by RS422 which is currently sent over CAT 5e cable into a serial plug and that is connected into a serial-USB converter. See Sony EVI-D70P product page.
