T4i Video time limitations and wedding videography: any solution?

After 20 years out of the business I am considering restarting a wedding and event videography business. Based on the recommendation of a professional film and television editor, I would like to purchase T4i's (x3) and use them as my shooting platform.
Unfortunately, the 22 minute limit on shooting video has me worried. As you know, a ceremony can last much longer. It was my intention to use two cameras in stationary and one hand-held. I can operate the hand-held of course, but the stationaries might be another problem all together, especially if one or both are positioned in such a way that approaching them during the ceremony would be problematic.
In reading about the RC-6 remote, I see it is infrared only and appears to only operate shutter/bulb release. Does anyone know of a wireless remote, more capable than the RC-6, that would operate this camera? Also, does anyone know of a...ahem 'software' solution to this problem?
Thanks

heh...I'm getting more confused by the moment!
First, thanks for the reply, Tim. Secondly, this is a quote from Canon's specs on the camera (which can be found at: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/slr_cameras/eos_rebel_t4i_18_135mm_is_stm_le... )
Continuous Shooting Time
[1920 x 1080]
30 fps: Approx. 22 min.
25 fps: Approx. 22 min.
24 fps: Approx. 22 min.
I am aware of the WTO's/EU tarriff obligations on DSLR's and the 30 minute rule (which I hope will soon go the way of the carrier pigeon), but it appears that Canon dropped the recording time to 22 minutes. Regardless, 22 minutes or 30 minutes, it still means a limitation.
Finally, I have asked about the RS-6 remote and have been told by a representative of B&H Photo that it will operate the camera while in video mode. That solves one of the problems, but the LOS issue is still a sticking point. I'll continue to work towards a solution. Where there's a will, there's a way (sometimes).
Thanks again.

Since I upgrade my iphone 3gs to ios 5.1, I have several problems with network and wi-fi, any solution? (No jailbreak)
Most of the time the iphone cannot reach any network and when it can, there is no data transfer, I can only make calls and sms.

I just updated Safari with version 5.1.10 and now I cannot use "open location". Anyone else having this problem and are there any solutions?

Ok ...
Try troubleshooting extensions and third party plugins.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

Following upgrade to osx 10.8.2 on my mac mini I can no longer connect to icloud, I wouldn't mind so much but I have come to rely on th eicloud services to manage my work and home services, has any1 else experienced this and has any1 any solutions?

Had the same problem this morning after updating to 10.8.2. Mail was finding my dot-mac account as always, but System Preferences popped up and said my iCloud password was incorrect. Did the "forgot password" reset, but still had the same problem. Then I went to icloud.com in Safari, logged in with the new password, it worked no problem. So I went back to the icloud preference pane, signed out of icloud, answered yes to all the warnings about data being deleted from my mac, blah blah blah, then re-signed in to icloud. Everything worked. I did have to set up my icloud account in Mail again, which now lists the account mailbox as "iCloud", and not "mac.com" as it did before. But so far, everything is working (fingers crossed.)

Sound like a trackpad problem and not an iPhoto one. Have you asked in the forum dedicated to the Mac model you're using or is this an add on trackpad?

There is a conflict with third party software or your system keyboard shortcuts. Lately, there have been many postings about conflicts with Chrome extensions so check there first.
It's not a new problem. I wrote about it on InDesignSecrets.com in 2006:

TS4436 hi, when zooming in to capture still images, the image is really blurred and out of focus. is this a hardware issue and is there any solution for this?? or is my device faulty?

hi, when zooming in to capture still images, the image is really blurred and out of focus. is this a hardware issue and is there any solution for this?? or is my device faulty?

If you are using the iPhone camera zoom then remember that this is a digital zoom not an optical zoom. The zoomed in area will have fewer pixels and not appear as clear. The more you zoom the worse it gets. It's like cropping a picture after it has been taken.

How do i setup time limits and restrictions on my airport extreme?

I am trying to restrict internet usage for my kids and just anyone who wants to use my mac without permission, how do I do this?

You can use the Timed Access feature for this type of application.
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click Manual Setup
Click the Access Control tab just below the row of icons
For MAC Access Control, select Timed Access
The "default" rule is set for unlimited access, which means that any computer with the correct password can connect to the wireless network at any time.
You will need to change the default rule to "No Access" and then click the + (plus) button at the bottom of the list to add the AirPort ID or MAC address of each device that you want to allow to connect to the network along with the daily time limits for that respective device.
So, if you have 5 devices that you want to allow to connect, you will have 5 separate rules, one for each device.
For example, Junior's iPod with AirPort ID of xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx would be allowed to connect daily from 8 AM to 11 PM.
For more detailed instructions, click Help at the top of the screen and enter the following phrase into the search box:

Every time i need to print something, I've to turn the print off and on again, any solutions?

Ok, I have a HP D110, installed wirelessly on a laptop mac OS X, everything works well, besides every time I need to print something, I've to turn the printer off and on to start print, like on a gap of 5 min. between jobs I have to do it, when it suppose to wake up as soon as you send a job to print I guess. I don't wanna have to go where the printer is all the time I need to print some, otherwise I'd use the cable connection, if anyone have solutions or experience the same prob, I'm looking for answers to solve this.
Thank you.
Alfred!

Camera on iPhone4 doesn't work, when you use either the icon on the screen all you get the the shutter. I am unable take pictures. Has anyone had the same problem and are there any solutions?

The camera on my iPhone 4 isn't working and hasn't for quite sometime. I have updated the phone to IOS 6 and it hasn't made any difference.
When you use the icon that appears at the bottom of the screen or the camera icon on the main screen all you see is the camera shutter.I have tried to restore the camera and that hasn't made any difference. I have spoken to Apple support and they sent me a support site to check out, but there isn't any specific solution for my problem. Has anyone had a similar problem and is there a solution?

Try:
- Reset the iPhone. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPhone: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPhone.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I can't play password protected vzaar videos on my iPad 2. Any solutions??

It seems like password protected videos on a variety of online video sharing business platforms no longer work on the iPad 2.
Unprotecting videos is not an option.
I believe this was first introduced with iOS 5.
Does anyone have any solutions to this???

Hi there,
I'm afraid the lack of password protection on the iPad with vzaar videos is a limitation of our HTML5 player, so rather than allowing the protected videos to be played on these devices we simply block them while we work on our implementation.
Our HTML5 player is still relatively new and we're constantly adding features, but obviously password protection is a sensitive issue and we want to make sure we get it right.
For now, I'd suggest using passwords at a page level to protect the videos, using .htpasswd for instance.
In future, if you contact us directly at vzaar.com/help we'll be able to get back to you much quicker.
All the best,
Dan

New iPad Air keyboard freezes, unresponsive and nightmare? Any solutions? I have reset didn't fix it

New IPad Air 32GB. Keyboard is intermittent and not accurate. I can't press the auto correct spellings or move the cursor to desired place in a sentence. Works sometimes and then not at other times. Very frustrating. Any fixes? I bought a Anker Bluetooth keyboard and used a few times. I have a thin screen protector on, could this cause the issue? Help thanks.

Does your iTunes account have current payment information?

Is iTunes up to date? 11.1.1 is the current version.

Do you have enough space on the iPad?

Any activity with my browser, Chrome, causes playback on iTunes to stutter and cackle. Any solutions?

I have the latest version of iTunes available for Windows XP and the same with Chrome. Just recently, everytime I open my browser, a new table, click on a link, any activity on the internet causes my playback to skip and stutter and repeat itself for about the first ten to fifteen seconds of playing. I have just over 17 days of music on a seperate harddrive that I keep all my music on so it doesn't slow down my computer and it has never caused a problem before, so I am assuming the connection is not the issue. I have checked the bitrate, and all the other solutions I have found on other forums, but nothing has helped. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
