Hello.

On an old 1MP Casio camera I have, there is a nice feature that lets
you capture a movie in a special
'past movie mode'. Does anyone know of any more modern (digital)
photocameras or camcorders that have this feature? So you can record
an interesting subject continually (until you run out of battery
power) and then when something interesting happens, capure everything
that happened in a specified period before the shutterbutton was
pressed. This prevents missing the start of an interesting event
because you've started recording the movie too late. I wish my Canon
S2 had that feature.

Quote from the above URL:

"To capture moving action, the movie recording mode records up to 10
second movies in 320 x 240 pixel AVI format. An interesting option
here is the Past movie mode, which records events that occurred before
the shutter button was pressed (the camera actually records images to
a buffer memory and once the shutter button is pressed, copies those
images to the CompactFlash)."

Kind regards and thanks in advance for any suggestions or comments,
Niek

I remember Cool Edit Pro quite well. It was and is a very good product.
You are right about how Adobe operates, except for one thing: "doubling"
isn't the right factor; try "tripling" or "quadrupling" and you'll closer
to the truth.

Cool Edit Pro is the product they re-named and releaed as
"Adobe Audition 1.0" OTOH, it was Cool Edit 2000 (CE2K)
that was the very modestly-priced 2-track version. They just
killed that product altogether and there has never been an
equivalent price/performance product in that niche. It would
have been trivial (and profitable) for them to rename CE2K
as "Audition Elements" and continue the <$100 price-point.
But even though I own the full-blown production bundle, I'll
have to agree about Adobe's greedy practices. I was a very
satisfied customer of Syntrillium's CE2K and CEP products
before they sold-out to Adobe.
