newone 0 #1 January 7, 2009 Hi, Now is the time for me to install my little Kodak V705 on my camera helmet. I have noticed that most of you have it installed right above your eyes (forehead) and not on the top.. Sounds like a smart idea due to the small size of the camera.. However, I looked over this forum for pictures of camera helmets and could not find any pictures showing how you guys have installed the Kodak V705 on your helmets. If you are jumping with a Kodak V705, could you please upload a picture of your setup here.!? Thanks for all the help Eric Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Icon134 0 #2 January 7, 2009 unfortunately I can't really help as I don't have that setup... but have you looked through this thread yet? http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1324044;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;;page=unread#unreadLivin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

In the other hand there's a million different way to ount that camera on million different helmets. If you hava flat surface on the top of your helmet I recommend to drill a 1/4 inch (6.5mm) hole on it and use aregular camera screw (1/4 inch).

I have a 2KC FF2, but I have only seen pictures with bigger camera mounted on the top of the helmet.

If you have made friends with one or two others who have already mounted a camera I'm sure they would be willing to supervise you while you mopunt your camera for the small fee of a couple of beers.

I get upset when people won't fill out a profile because they want to slap a camera on there head so bad they can't stand it. God forbid they give important information that might help us help them. A friend will bail you out of jail , a REAL friend will be sitting next to you in the cell slapping your hand saying "DUDE THAT WAS AWSUM " ................
