I also have to add that I'm in awe of your steady hand with the camera. I appreciate that camcorders these days have built in stabalisation, but even so, very impressive work  .

Cheers Cliff.
Gaydon is well worth the visit, the main halls are much improved and now have better lighting making them feel light and airy, adding the Collections Centre and Jaguar Heritage really make it the museum it should have always been.
Thanks also for your comments regarding my steady hand, granted most camcorders have some sort of stabilisation but, I have to say, some of it is down to clever editing
.
There are three types of stabilisation; digital, optical and balanced optical, the CX570E I used for the Gaydon videos has optical stabilisation and still requires a reasonably steady hand. I've just invested in a camcorder with balanced optical stabilisation, unfortunately second-hand as I can't run to new, hopefully I'll now be able to add a bit more movement to my videos.
