  1. ye i have found some PC's do want a docking station but it's no big deal to use for swopping footage, not shore at what model point the docking stations came in but the PC8,9,101 i know do not have one . YeHaaaaaaaaaaa
  2. competition skydiving is where it starts to cost a serious amount of cash, even at rookie level . with the introduction of more wind tunnels skill levels are shooting up but so is the cost of keeping up with progression . my kit was not cheep but i think it was worth every penny, ye of course i would of liked it to have cost less but that's the same with everything. when i look at what i have spent in the 3 years in the sport, it's a big lump, but against what i have got out of it, it's been worth it . i have achieved goals i am happy about but i also know I'm still at the beginning of the ride . i think it all depends what you want out of it . keep on keepin on
  3. i seem to be getting the impression that the PC range of camcorders are preferred for skydiving , well over here in the UK that is . I'm being told there more robust than the HC range and have the good old DV in and out so ya can all swop your footage without any messing about . Any opinions out there as i am getting my info from only one DZ and this is the well of knowledge .. YeHaaaaaaaaaaa
