dayle 0 #1 March 23, 2006 Hi all, I'm trying to figure out what video camera, still camera and camera helmet I should buy. In terms of the video camera, I think I'll stick with a Sony but I'm not sure what model I should get. With regard to the Still camera, I've hear the Cannon digital rebel rocks but would like other opinions. Lastly, I need to figure out which camera helmet I should get. This is the part I'm having the most trouble with. I want to mount everything on top, no side mounts. So what are your experiences and what would you recommend? Thanks, Dayle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stratostar 5 #2 March 23, 2006 Flat top pro rocks lot of real estate to work with. The camera comes down to what do want to spend. I like the canon 10 or 20d's my self but there heavy. The rebel xt's are nice too and light, I think a little slower though and I don't like the plastic body. But the people I know who have them have had great luck with them. I'll be top mounting a pc100 on a FTP with a 20d. At least I can side mount the pc 100 if I ever wanted to do so, but couldn't with a TRV. And yes sony all the way again how much do you want to spend. ~you can't pay for kids schoolin' with love of skydiving! ~ Airtwardo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miami 0 #3 March 23, 2006 What Strato said...you won't go wrong with pretty much any of the mini-dv cameras from sony, just depends on how much you want to spend. Also you won't go wrong with any of Canon's digital SLR line. I'm mounting a trv70 and a 20d on an Azimuth, which is 2KComposites' top mount camera system. Little less expensive than the FTP and a very nice helmet. PM me if you have questions about it. Hope this helps...Miami Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
