Are tandem stills underpriced?

As far as handy-cams go, you cannot generate stills from those, so that's outside the scope of this discussion.



Sure you can, you can do frame grabs off the video. Quality sucks, but you can still get 'em

>... If you change the price of a skydive a little bit the customer may flee to your closest competition. Consumers are price minded in todays economy. If the prices you offer aren't competitive, you wont be making skydives.



I agree, but only if your competition is unwise. Smart competition never competes on price, and instead, should match the increase! As long as the increase is reasonable and the consumer can still bear it (which appears to be true in our case of separately-sold stills), then it will become the new accepted price, and the video guys will have extra cash for fun jumps, new camera, or whatever else they might fancy!

True, though I found that frame-grabbed stills don't sell all that well, since you can only get a 3x5 print out of those at best. But if someone wants to buy those from you, I don't see any problem, as long as you make them aware of the quality issue.
