ltdiver 3 #2 February 25, 2006 Take a look in the Photography Forum here. Lots of good information on these exact cameras there. Just do a "Search". ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nate_1979 9 #3 February 25, 2006 And, as I'm sure you've heard before, a few more jumps before putting it on your head wouldnt hurt But basicly, if it's a Sony, and helmets can hold it, and it has a LANC port (if you want a cam eye which comes in handy), and you can put a wide angle lens on it, it will probably work great.
