I use 3/4" decks here at home for editing. Actually this is not quite true, you don't have to *purchase* editing decks at all. If you work for a larger size corperation they may have an A/V dept with editing equipment that you could use. Also it most decent sized towns you can rent time on editing equipment. Look in the yellow pages under video production services. If I remember right, time on 1/2'' set-ups is around $30 per hour. Another thing to consider is that some of the newer home video decks produce a very, very short blip that might be acceptable to you. -Steve "Chainsaw" Dunn
