SONY of CANADA LTD. became a partner of racerocks.com in April of 2001. We had already been using three SONY camcorders for the past year for our work at Race Rocks. SONY Canada has now provided us with a SONY Digital Handycam - DCR -TRV210 Digital 8 Camera. This camera is very useful to us in mobile webcasts and in video editing.

Garry shows Hugo the mobile webcasting software while Hannah shoots the tower at Race Rocks using the SONY TR7000. The camera is connected by Firewire to the G3 500 Computer. The Sorenson Broadcast goes by the wireless AirPort connection to the small antenna located on the top of the Science Centre in the background of the picture.

In April 2000, Jim and Satoshi were trained in mounting the SONY Digital camera into the underwater housing in preparation for underwater video recording.
