I am getting a new Compact Digital camera that has Video abilities. All these formats, are kinds that I am wondering about, they all have PCM audio in Wave Format. The AVI in a MOV container is encoded by a Kodak EasyShare DX6440, and is at 320 x 240 Resolution @ 15 fps. If all these formats were at that resolution and frame rate, then which would take up more space? I was just wondering, because my new camera is going to be a Kodak EasyShare that is getting handed down to me.

The AVI container should take up more space, but I'm not sure. I also think that the MJPEG in MOV container will work the best in terms of compression and taking up less space, but again i am not sure.

was it traumatic, or self-deifining, or a once in a lifetime experience?
do you think the story would sell, or no one would bother at all?

As a singer, I have always dealt with performance anxiety at performances/auditions. The physical manifestations of the anxiety sometimes affect my voice (shortness of breath, tightness, tremors).
I have recently been given a perscrption for beta blockers (propanolol 10mg) I understand that this will help with the physical symptoms. I feel a bit guitly about this however, that it might give me an unfair advantage, especially at an audition, in that everybody else has to deal with the same anxiety. Is it like steroids or blood doping, or is it simply dealing with a condition. If a was offered a performing contract as a result of an audition done under a beta blocker, would I be doing it under false pretenses?
Have tried other stress reliever, i.e Yoga, deep breathing.

I have to do a presentation on three professional photographs and explain things such as contrast (color, tone, shape, light vs. dark, focus vs. blurriness, silhouettes, colors (ie. primary colors, monochromatic etc.), convergence of lines (leading lines), repitition of shape or pattern, symmetry & balance, framing (rule of 3rds) and is the photo a moment frozen in time? I know this sounds lik a lot, but I really have no clue where to start. If anyone could just give me a few ideas, I'd be so greatful, because honestly I know nothing about photography. The three pictures I selected are at the following links:
http://photoawards.com/06/contests/winners_detail.asp?id=27758 --> It is the picture of the pink fish in the reef

http://photoawards.com/06/contests/winners_detail.asp?id=29780

Thank You!!
