Video Rig

edwardbarnett

Pictured is My Axis XP 6.5 Creedmoor equipped with a Chinese copy of the Go-Pro mini cam. I got the camera from the Top Hatter auction site for $9.00 with the purchase of a 32GB mini SD card, my total cost was less than $25.00.
The camera does not have a zoom feature (neither does a Go-Pro) but I have experimented with a video of vehicles in my neighborhood, parked 150 +or- yards away. The video is pretty clear and sharp. I will have to see how the rig works in early morning or late evening low-light conditions at my ranch.
Others have suggested that I mount the camera on a tripod or head strap, I want the subject that I shoot (whitetailed deer) centered in my videos and the scope mount makes that possible, the tripod or head strap, no so much!
Another issue is the result of recoil and I plan on taking the rifle to a range in the near future.
What think you??

Hi! Sorry to bring up the old thread, but where did you buy this camera? I can't find her anywhere.

Are you sure you would like to purchase this particular camera? It's a little outdated. Some models will provide you with better video quality and will weigh less. When buying a camera, always pay attention to the weight.  I advise you to check the marketplace for broadcasting equipment. Some time ago, I bought a camera mount there for quite a decent amount. I think that their equipment is also inexpensive.  If you have any questions, you can write to me in private messages. I will be happy to help you with advice. Still, choosing a camera is not an easy matter for a hunter.
