Tealey 0 #1 February 14, 2007 Can anybody help me in regards to mounting a hc7 and a eos400d (rebel)...top mount/ side mount ?? any suggestions would be great! cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites dragon2 2 #2 February 14, 2007 Those camera's need to be both topmounted so you want a helmet that can handle either both on top next to each other, or video on top and stills on front. edit: if you really have so little jumps, or for anyone starting camera work, it's way better to start with flying video only, not both. ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites vdschoor 0 #3 February 14, 2007 Quote edit: if you really have so little jumps, or for anyone starting camera work, it's way better to start with flying video only, not both. [sarcasm] nah.. just start shooting stills too.. just put your tongue on the trigger as soon as you leave the airplane.. you'll get an ok picture at some point right?[/sarcasm] I agree with Saskia here.. mount the video and start flying.. in fact.. with that number of jumps, start flying, and leave the video on the ground for a bit longer..

I keep seeing pics from people who have no clue about shooting video/stills, about which setting to use when etc etc. "Saskia, help! What's this little -insert symbol here- doing on my screen on jumprun???" Now of course that never happened to me I RTFM (eventually) ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites beowulf 1 #5 February 14, 2007 If you can't fly your body very well it is unlikely that you will get very many good photos or video worth watching.
