JesseP 0 #1 June 23, 2004 Interested if anyone is using one for BASE. Does it handle opening shocking without cutting out? Picture quality in low light? Thanks, Jesse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aidclimber 0 #2 June 24, 2004 I have the DCR-HC30 and have 12 slider down jumps and one terminal jump on the camera. it has been working very well so far. i had a small glich on the terminal opening but i'm the only one who noticed and very nice video/audio on the slider down openings (2 sec delay). careful what you say with the camera on as the microphone is very strong.. i've been happy with it so far... light weight and low profile.

TomAiello 26 #3 June 24, 2004 I'm going to move this thread to Photography and Video, and leave a pointer here. Perhaps we'll get some more input from the camera flyers over there.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomAiello 26 #4 June 24, 2004 For the camera folks reading this... I'm not sure if it's an issue skydiving, but on BASE jumps, particularly slider down, the opening shock is hard enough that it makes some cameras cut out (either entirely go black, or just blur when the floating lens gets shaken around).-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
