I'm looking for large format cameras; I don't like digital cameras, 35mm cameras or medium format cameras. I only want large format cameras using sheet film from size 4x5"(that's the smallest I'll accept) and bigger. You've ruined your site. I can't even find what I want.

Are the Batman movies really filmed in Chicago?

The most recent installments are yes. Batman Begins used a section of the loop to film their latter city sections of the movie. The Batmobile chase scenes where all filmed in Chicago. The film at the time did not had a working title or fake title but as soon as news cameras caught scenes with the weird looking mobile; speculation went crazy that it could be the new Batman movies.

Chicago was all over the Dark Knight. You can even see some mistakes where Chicago's name was not edited out. Lower Wacker and a predominant influence on the movie. The hospital explosion was even done in Chicago suprisingly instead of some Hollywood lot. It was the old Brachs candy building. Hotel Monaco was obviously centered in the middle of some of the Mayor office scenes. Even when license plates where shown in the movie they resembled Illinois' plates but just said Gotham instead of Illinois.

I saw the semi flipping scene live?it was crazy! They only had one time to get it right without blowing the street apart and or accidently throwing it into the surrounding buildings and cars. There are maps online that you can search the locations scene by scene of where things where in Chicago for the Dark Knight and Begins. Tourism is going to skyrocket when they start filming the 3rd movie because the Dark Knight was such a phenomenon. It made the city $45 million dollars for TDK.

Should I buy a separate video camera if my cell phone and digital camera come with that feature already?

Digital camera video features are great for small display or webcams. They do not hold the regular camcorder capacity.

Same issue with cell phones but x2. Cell phones are even smaller so you will be dealing with grainy resolution and sketchy sound quality if you want to use it in bigger picture.

Basically for blog, fun, webcam, short videos, small projects, etc. You can get away with using just a digital camera or cell phone but for things such as family vacations to corporate advertisements; you would want something more advanced. Not mentioned but memory capacity is really small in cell phones/digital cameras. You can only film a few minutes at most.

Your digital camera and cell phone only have limited space and very short recording time. So it would depend on how much you want to record @ a time. I have all 3 & with the cell you can get something spontaneously, but if you go on vacation or have a certain event you plan to attend and want to capture the most of it I wouldnt do it with out video cam.

I have a sony cybershot camera that is not working. I charged the battery and I can't get the camera to open. Where can I take it for repair in Easton, Pennsylvania l8042 and is it worth it?
