Hi all,

Firstly, thanks for your comments. I'll deal with some comments on this reply.

Paolo - i'd agree in some way. The resolution hasnt really been improved, but what has been improved is being able to present the image larger while being smooth and sharp. It is i feel perhaps a bit more aesthetically pleasing than the C9.25 shot alone, and the majority of opinion seems to agree.

Eric - The image was at 10fps.

We were fortunate to be using the exact same cameras and filters. The C11 used by David Tyler now, was previously my C11 i'd used for the last few years. We live just 3/4 mile apart, so this is a great advantage, and we hope to produce more collaborative efforts in the future.

Best Wishes

Damian
