Iain has graciously offered to answer any questions from MFVA members about the making of Life By Lobster.  I’ll start by asking:
What kind of camera did you use?

I used a number of cameras in the making of LBL.  Most of the footage was shot on a Sony PD-170, by far the nicest of the bunch.  Early on I used a mishmash of Canon and Panasonic prosumer and consumer cams.  These all shot directly to DV tape. 

Thanks for the question!

Best,
