Health and Safety

When introduced, we learnt about the health and safety of each procedures. Each time we borrow an equipment  our contact number must be noted down just in case the worst happens. For the equipment  i learnt   what can be dangerous about each equipment.

JVC Camcorders

The JVC video cameras are expensive technical equipment that must not be harmed or lost because it's expensive to replace. It is a fragile equipment that can easily be damaged, so therefore when in the hands of a user, the user must use the attached handle to support the camera, they can also use to hands to help keep it steady.


Tripod

Tripods are one of the most dangerous equipment demonstrated of them all. They are used to support the camera's - giving it a steady shot. They are extremely heavy, therefore can be very dangerous if not used properly. When stretching or closing the legs, the tripod can easily catch your hand and pinch it. If the camera is not fully placed on to the tripod, by twisting the handles to make it tight and secure, the camera or tripod can easily fall and get damaged.



External hardware/storage device

When on the Mac's, we learnt to make sure to eject each external device that is used before removing it from the computer because the data from the device can be all erased.
