Frame grabs the Dallas Morning News way

This is such an amazing gesture. The Dallas Morning News has made available the tool it uses to pull publishable frame grabs from HDV video. It supposedly results in a 65MB image file.

My coworker Kin Man Hui seems to be our resident frame grab expert. He's done quite a lot of experimenting to find the optimum shooting and sequence settings to get good ones. I bet he'll enjoy fooling around with the "D2 Voodoo tool." Maybe I'll ask him to write a review later...
