Unfortunately I couldn't take my tripod in so I had to settle for shaky. Do you think this video could be accepted. I have other clips that are steadier that I have already submitted. Should I submit this one?

Check it out...

Yes, post it as editorial. I think it will sell. It looks like you either have a finger smudge on the bottom right of your lens, or it was a flair from the gym lights. I like the vid a lot.

JUST RELAX, you'll have a chance... Now where was I?

Yur right, a little shaky, some focus in and out and lots of zooms. it was difficult to tell exactly what was happening at first. With the long video it finally made sense. Your are lucky because just prior to the election either candidate is very newsworthy. In a few months the clip will have no value. A producer probably would not use the entire clip but might uses a few seconds cut here and there. Your are right in SS really is tough on jerky clips, they may let this one slide due to the election upcoming. Fun being there and being able to capture it on tape, well done.

I'd recommend upping it asap. Like Don said, the value will die off quick.
