camera setup

[c07john.mann 0]

I have a Sony DCR-TRV22 Mini DV camera that I would eventually like to mount on a helmet and jump. The only mount that I can seem to find that will work is one that is just a camera shell and not a helmet - everything else is made for smaller cameras even though mine is already pretty small. I don't want to jump without a helmet, but when I get to enough jumps and experience, I'd like to be able to jump this camera. Any ideas??? Thanks!

There should be plenty of mounts that will fit. For example, here's one.

Lots of talk about such topics in the Photography and Video forum

It's an Australian company (I'm in Aus) but Cookie is very well known over here. I have a cookie standard helmet that I can convert into a camera helmet whenever I want to...

And the customer service is absolutely fantastic!!

How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?

camera shells....or D-boxes are made to attach to helmets. Now i have the same camera and i jump it without a d-box, i just have it attached with a quick release. Now, you can find basically everything you need from Bonehead, they have the D-boxes, helmets, and quick releases....take your pick, experiment and enjoy.

I jump a TRV22 top mounted in a bonehead d-box on a bonehead optik, and I think jtval is jumping the same setup. It's been working great for me.
