DSE 5 #2 December 14, 2008 Other than difficulty to mount, and my personal prejudice against Sanyo's non-standardized AVC (not AVCHD) codec which means you *may* have some editing issues, it's a decent little camera at 14Mbps. Haven't skydived with it, but have worked with it a bit on a tradeshow floor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

der-bene 0 #4 December 14, 2008 and how was the quality of the videos??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 5 #5 December 14, 2008 nothing that I'm satisfied with, but I'm a snob. There is a reason that virtually everyone in skydiving (or other high-motion/activity sport) recommends Sony. Cuz it works, and delivers a good image. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
der-bene 0 #6 December 20, 2008 so last monday i ordered the cam, yesterday it was here and now i'm trying to get it in my helmet. @dse i took a few videos outside, inside in the celler(no daylight) and of our dog running through the garden and i must say that all videos are in quality nearly perfect! i didnt try it in freefall but i'll post again when i finished blue skies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JanuszPS 0 #7 January 7, 2009 Any results and jumps with the camera? i'm very keen to see them as I think to buy it. I think a good thing is that there is possibility to install the wide angle to the camera directly. regards JanuszBack to Poland... back home. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
