Camera Help

Recommended Posts

I want to start putting a camera helmet together. I really don't know what requirements to look for as far as a video cam goes. Sears has a video cam on sale until tomorrow and I wanted to get opinons on it. If this is not a good video cam for skydiving, could anyone responding please explain why so I know what to look for:

Sony Digital8® Camcorder, Handycam® with 2-1/2 in. SwivelScreen™ LCD Monitor


The DCR-TRV140 packs top notch digital performance into a surprisingly affordable package without sacrificing stunning detail, clarity, and video performance, even when shooting at night.


Connect USB terminal to PC and broadcast live video with audio, capture still images, more
USB Streaming only (System requirements: Windows® 98,98SE, 2000, ME, XP)
1/4 in. Color CCD, 290 effective pixels
Super NightShot™ with Color Slow Shutter
Steady Shot® Picture Stabilization System
Up to 500 lines of horizontal resolution
i.Link® DV interface (IEEE 1394)
S-Video Output
Interval/frame recording


Thank you and Blue Skies

Get a Sony DV camera if at all possible. There is a substantial difference in picture quality. My Digital 8 now serves as a VCR only and it's really good for that. I'm using a DCR-TRV20 and am very satisfied but I'd guess that the newer ones are even better. Note that almost all Videots use Sony and that should tell you something.
