stoneypilot 0 #1 May 2, 2002 I just bought the new sony DCR-IP5 microdv camcorder and I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with this new smaller model and its capabilities with skydiving??? I am also trying to get some info on the new BH Optik....anyone mounted anything on it yet and made some jumps??? I'll take any response's I can get on this info.Thanks!Remember to stay high, pull low, and sleep with thy riggers girlfriend! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diverds 0 #2 May 2, 2002 I have a TRV-30 in a d-box mounted on an Optik. I really like the helmet so far. It is very comfotable and clean. I have a friend who jumps a PC-110 in a d-box on an Optik and he likes his very much as well. I have nothing bad to say about it.-Dave"Gas...Undercarriage...Mixture...Prop...Beer" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildblue 4 #3 May 2, 2002 You might want to search through this forum, I think we talked about this before. The general concensus (IIRC) was that the IP5 wasn't going to be a great camera for skydiving. Lower picture quality, less battery time, I *think* it's missing the lanc port (for cam-eye)If you use it, let us know how it turns out.You don't scare me! I got chunks of guys like you in my stool!!
