Tandem handcam

[skydiverton2 0]

Will very likely to start doing hand cam on tandemjumps in the very near future. (We get more video requests than we can handle). Need advise on glove, lens and camera type (I do not have a camera yet, prefer low height)

Thanx in advance.
With a little over 1000 tandems I meet the requirement to do handycam, so this does not need discussion

Using your droque to gain stability is a bad habid.

hi Ton,

Take a look in the instructors forum, some threads about handcams there.

I have just started learning handycam but the glove of choice by the experienced instructors here is the Way Cool Glove with the camera eye. As far as cameras it seems as though Sony has eliminated alot of the higher end cameras mini DV cameras we like to use and are just keeping some of the lower end units in production, however you can still find the DCR-HC96 ( which is a higher end single chip camera) refurbished on their website. As far as the lens we use a Royal .2 lens.
