<font color='#0000FF'>Last October I brought a digital camera (Canon S40), for work actually, then at LIDS i thought it would be good to get a camera case. Well on times I've taken the caemra in the water the pictures came out really well - well not for photo comps or anything but great for memories and share with fellow divers. Now, last week I tried to use the video section if the camera and was surprised how good the video was, it actually lied because it seemed that the viz was a lot better than what i remembered it to be! After all this I have some questions I hope someone can help:
1) The video shots I can only view with quick time, i think the video is saved as .avi . Why can't it be viewed with other programmes such as real? Can I save the videos as another file?
2) What software can I use to compile the many short video snaps? I know the camera is not really a video camera but would like to collate the individual shots as one video.
3) How often should I grease the O-ring of the case?
And sods law now means that whenever I don't take the camera I usually see something great, i.e two weeks ago seeing a massive octopus and great viz -but does anyone else believe me -nooo!
