		XLR to XLR Cabling This 24' long cable adapts a standard microphone (XLR) output to a standard microphone (XLR) input.
PROJECTION
		Screen These collapsible, portable screens measure 6x6 feet, or 8x8 feet, and are helpful when projecting slides or movies.
		Sanyo Data Projector This projects images from a laptop, VCR, or other device onto a screen at 1024x768 pixels. It has two computer inputs (15-pin), RCA and S-video inputs. One projector has keystone correction abilities; this is helpful when the projector is to be positioned significantly above or below the projection surface. Please specify at the time of reservation if you would like the keystone-correction projector.
		Portable Table This small, easy-to-carry collapsible table is perfect for use with Sanyo Data projectors. It gives the user a stable platform for the projector, and the height is adjustable.
VIDEO
		DVD Digital Camcorder These digital devices record video and sound onto a mini DVD disk. These DVDs can be played in the majority of modern DVD drives like those connected to a television or those in a computer. The DVD Camcorder can also output directly to a television using included cables. They include batteries with a 2-3 hour life. They use condensed microphones, so sound is best picked up at short distances. Camcorder tripods are also available, be sure to add them to your request if you will be needing one. Summarized instruction sheet are included in the package and discs (DVD-R) are available for purchase at the HelpDesk..
