sunnerl 0 #1 August 16, 2007 can anyone give me advice on what camera to buy? i am looking for the smallest HDV camera, which is great for skydiving and works with memory stick / card? i would prefer sony but they all look quite big.. does anyone know about a system where you just put the lense and a small cam on your helmet and you wear the memory inside your suit or something like this? any help would be very appreciated!

DSE 3 #2 August 17, 2007 Coupla options; HDV-Sony HC5 is smallest. AVCHD-Sony CX7 is smaller still. Soon, Canon's new AVCHD (HC10) will be shipping. No knowledge of how well it will do, but it is the same front end as the HV20, so it likely won't work. As far as lipstick cams, nothing that is HD at this time. There is a new card-based unit from Convergent Design in Denver, that may be appropriate for this sort of recording, but it's not expected to ship until late November.
