A DVD with video that covered the entire field for every match would be valuable for scouting purposes (assuming it was produced quickly enough) and to have as a documentary of matches. I'd be willing to pay maybe $30 for something like that.
Thanks for the response and thats exactly what I was thinking, I talked to another news cameraguy and he is interested in coming out to play, considering what we do in daily hard news....three days at a FIRST competition would be a holiday, not work for us

I should post my email here in case anyone needs to reach me or any of the powers that be at FIRST would like to contact me as I am not always on the chiefdelphi site. Mark Rozitis (stormcentre@rogers.blackberry.net).

Overall if we get the feeling that there would be a good response/demand for this....I will do my best to see if we can do this, would be fun and gets me out of doing real work for three days
