mouth 0 #1 May 9, 2005 Anyone use their RAWA to do tandem video? Have you noticed any problems with the video or stills? What kind of camera do you have for stills? -- Hot Mama At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LouDiamond 1 #2 May 9, 2005 I used my RAWA with a PC100 and a Digi Rebel on top before I switched to my Bonehead Optik Illusion. I didn't have any problems at all."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkydiveMO 0 #3 May 10, 2005 The only thing about using freefly video helmets for shooting tandems is the angle of the camera platform is very flat. When freeflying you are looking directly at the subject you are filming so the camera and stills are on level with your eyes. With other camera helmets there is more of a slope on the camera platform. When you are belly flying in front of a slow flying tandem with a freefly helmet you have to really crank your head back to keep everything in frame and get that nice tandem student money face shot. Not the most comfortable thing to do but not the end of the world. I use an Optik and several of the videographers at the DZ use Rawa’s to shoot tandem video and stills with no problems other then the occasional sore neck jumping with the real slow falling tandem master with the real light tandem passanger.
