zz1170 0 #1 November 16, 2007 I have 110 jumps and I am thinking about learning how to shoot video. My wife has just purchasd a SONY HDR-CX7 vidoe camera. What is the advice on using this VIDEO camera for SKYDIVING ? Thanks, Richard J. Sloan form Raeford Drop Zone, NC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmytavino 16 #3 November 16, 2007 welll .. for skydiving?? sure... as long as you're standing on the ground... no offense, but an average of 20 jumps a year,,, and you're borderline safe, just to be skydiving yourself...... Unless you are a true prodigy.. you need to double up your numbers at a minimum, before adding the complexity of a video camera. as to your question about suitablility in general. it's a good one... You don't even have to 'search ' for the subject. just scroll through the most recent pages of posts, here.... I think you'll see discussion about the HDR CX7..... safety first. and safety second,, too.....jimmytavino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 5 #4 November 17, 2007 As there are *many* threads on jump numbers, and two threads on the CX7, howzabout we continue the discussion in one of those threads? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
