If your camera permits, try a combo UV /polarizing filter. Anti-glare AND UV protection, Camera shop should help you with that one. Of course, it depends on what kind of camera you…

just for the record, a UV filter won't prevent damage to your camera (since UV won't damage your camera), but it will ensure that the image you see isn't skewed because of the UV l…

The subject line says it all. Since I already own a burner (which is currently hooked up to my pc), my blue & white G3 has an EIDE network and I don't want to buy another bu…

NEC clik!-usb now works. I installed the USB Mass Storage Support 1.3.5 from Apple, and now I have a USB clik! drive for the Macintosh. Cons - DOS formated disk, unable to reform…

hi, what you really need is what's called an "AAUI Tranceiver" (sp?) as far as i know, all powermacs shipped w/ ethernet, but the earlier ones, such as your 6100, didn't have a nor…

Hi, thanks for replying. I already have a transcever. but I need another ethernet port.

Asante made one for the longest time, EN/SC. But as far as I knew, the drivers for it were NOT Open Trasnport compliant. And if I can extrapolate what you're trying to do, I'd gues…

I'm going to be connecting a video camera via firewire to my B&W G3 like this: (Sony DCR-PC1)+(15 Foot FireWire Cable)+(Orange Micro FireWire Repeater)+(15 Foot Fire Wire Cable…

Why do they make s-video cables that are 30 feet long when the spec says 6 feet or less? Because it usually works, especially with a repeater... Drewman

hi there, sorry, but that's the big drawback of using usb for high-bandwith devices. usb can't push enough data to the farther devices fast enough to keep up with their needs. when…

Thanks for the reply, that's what I thought. I understand about the Avid capture needing all the bandwith, but I thought my CDR at a slower speed setting would be OK. Oh well, I'm …
