fallin 0 #1 June 17, 2007 Hi guys Does anyone have any experience jumping with a cameraless helmet cam. My camera is in for repair right now--Im going jumping tomorrow-not sure if I need to cover up the holes on my d-box or not. Im assuming that the air rushing through the box will be an issue but thought Id ask anyway. Im using a RAWA Imagem with a side mount for a hc42. Thanks Dudes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DSE 5 #3 June 17, 2007 hasn't been a problem for me. You'll hear noises/whistling, and it will have a slight pull, but that's no big deal. Perhaps gaff off the lens opening... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or go to the hardware store and buy a sponge and stuff it in the box. It will form to the size of the camera and fill up the space in the box. I was told only women were supposed to whistle in freefall....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

ArmyMedic 0 #7 July 24, 2007 do it quite often- no problems what so ever. If I am shooting stills only I will take the side mount video cam off to save weight on my neck. I have not noticed any increase in pulling or whistling noise (but I do wear earplugs)"This is better than sex, and cheaper too!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
