• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Best Camera Performance in Low Light

We are looking to buy a new camera for the upcoming chase season and are wanting chasers opinions on which cameras perform best, especially in low light. Right now we are looking at the Sony FX1 and the Canon XH-A1 or something near or lower in price.

If anyone has these cameras or one that you believe performs best in low light please let me know.
 
Look for a Panasonic HMC 150, great camera, tapeless(avchd), it has CCD's instead of CMOS, so no rolling shutter. The HMC150 lens is wider than the FX1000, but does not have a 20x zoom lens, so you would have to get closer, but it's not a bad thing.:D The hmc150 is also lighter than the FX1. If you want a ''film look'', you should consider the Panasonic. And, with the HMC150 you can run an on camera mic and an XLR at the same time. Etc....
