The video or photograph can be valid peice of evidence but before that it needs to be authenticated by a Govt, expert agency like Forensic Science Laboratory.
So do submit those articles and ask for appointment for expert for testing its genuineness.

also i have the stroage device & the bill of the stores where i took the digital print...! isnt that enough...?

if he has sublet the premises you can gather other evidence too .

sub tenant must be receivng letters in that address . showing it as his office address .

visiting card .landline telephone connection .

electricity bill if any .

best hire a detective agency they will gather sufficent evidence for you

Your storage device supported with bill of stores is sufficient to exhibit the video and photographs.

Your lawyer should read the latest change in law about digital cameras, photographs taken by such cameras and its frequent use in court proceedings.

@ mr ajay i have recived leeter in the name of the sublet ... but my lawyer says it might raise custody issue....( as how did i get those letter) so he is not putting those letter also.

and also i have acuired a copy of the registered firm with the registrar in the name of the sublet ( with my propert address)...but it does not ahve the proper address(i.e. shop no..)..we have given that to the court.
