jlau90us 0 #1 April 12, 2006 I have a Panasonic PV-GS150 camcorder and I was wondering if anyone has tried to mount this to a helmet before. I'm hoping to top mount it, but I don't know where to find a shell/lens for the camera. Any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimmytavino 16 #2 April 12, 2006 no never heard of a panasonic used in freefall.... which by the way,, you may need to wait on...anyway!!!!!!! til your jump numbers increase... that will give you time to save some $$$$$ so you can buy a sony.. .........and if your profile is accurate, til then, concentrate on learning to skydive..... peace........jmy....
