watchdog2 0 #1 October 26, 2009 Hey peeps!! Am getting back in to jumping after a good couple year break. Am kind of behind on the latest and greatest on digital skydiver-friendly camcorder technology. Any suggestions on a top-mounted camera sent my way would greatly be appreciated. Thanks!!

I am back at SSM and the other guys are using CX-100's and they look good but I refuse to lose my slow-mo. The CX-100 does have slow-mo but it sux. BTW, welcome back...

CX-100 slo-mo (not my video) To be honest, IMO the type of "slow down and rewind again" type of routine I see on some tandemvideos doesnt look very professional. Personally I prefer not to use any in-camera "special effects" at all... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
