  What were thetechnical pros and cons of the software and hardware? The camera and tripod allowed us to create a wide variety of shots such as long shots, close ups and high angle shots. The tripod also enabled steadiness. Pinnacle allowed us to edit individual shots eg. Using pan and zoom or changing the lighting or colour. However we did have some problems with pinnacle working on our computer.
