adrenalinejunki 0 #1 June 17, 2004 Does anyone have any advice about buying a digital video camera. I am still new to skydiving but want a camera to get some party footage and other stuff. I also want one that I would be able to jump with next year, since I don't have the jumps right now. My price range is CHEAP but good. Less than $400. All advice is apreciated. Thanks and BIG FAT BLUE ONES! Brad __________________________________________________What's the worst that can happen? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 June 17, 2004 QuoteMy price range is CHEAP but good. Less than $400. There are cameras out there new for that price...you probably wouldn't be happy with them. Big, heavy, mostly not Sony. You might beable to pick up an older Sony PC series camera off of Ebay (buyer beware) or elsewhere for $400-ish.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

adrenalinejunki 0 #3 June 18, 2004 There are all kinds of digital video camera's on ebay. Most are brand new. I have had my eye on a Sony handycam TRV318. They are going for a lil over $225. I really want a camera before WFFC this year.What's the worst that can happen? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
