Filming your Outdoor Adventures

[leechlake]

Last Fall a buddy of mine had a "hat" cam that he brought on a pheasant hunt. I thought it was pretty cool and picked one up for deer hunting season. I was with my son when he shot his first deer and captured it on the camera. The deer was 170 yards away and while I didn't get the deer on video I did get to capture him aiming, shooting, and the high fives between him and his excited words afterward.

I've used it for a few other things and I just wanted to recommend it to those of you who would like to get video/audio of some of your adventures.

I won't recommend a brand, I have no affiliation to any company that makes these products. I would say that the one I use straps to a headband and anything that I am looking at gets on the video. There is some tweaking with the audio in order to get the recording level higher, especially in hunting situations there is a lot of whispering and the factory settings barely catch that audio.

I think back to all of the moments that I wish I would have got on video and think this product is just another way to capture awesome memories.

I'm also glad I bought one and plan on using it a lot more, hopefully making better videos after practicing with it for the first time last fall during pheasant season.

same concept, I got a Contour brand. I checked the HSOforum of the brand in that link and it looks more like a traditional camera. The one I got seems to be designed differently and maybe more portable. Drawbacks of contour is no LCD screen to see what you are shooting, but it's smaller than that one.

I have a Tachyon XC micro for fishing vids. It's totally waterproof, and small enough to clip onto the bill of a cap without a harness or anything. It's a neat little camera.

Of course, I find that I always catch more when I don't have the camera rolling. I think the button that turns the camera OFF is the same button that turns the fish ON.

I have one of the waterproof versions from Kodak.

my buddie has his own business that films your hunts, you can see some of them on KOAoutdoors on youtube.
