Abstract

Now that you have an understanding of the fundamental concepts, terms, and principles of new media elements that comprise video projects, let's take a look at capturing raw video content with a digital camera, as well as digital camera concepts. We will be looking at how the digital camera digitizes imagery, formats it uses to store frames on-camera (or in-camera), and related topics such as high-speed Firewire and USB3 data transfer.
