Canon hv30

[velocityphoto 0]

A friend of mine has just bought an hv30 . Is anyone using it and having any luck with it for free fall? He planned on using it for hand cam videos. But i think it will be a headache!

OIS on steroids.

Try, and you will know.
As your friend did not stick to the regular sony, consider yourself a testjumper.

Please let us know

Using your droque to gain stability is a bad habid.

Also in case you jump a sport rig!!!

Was your friend ever able to make the HV30 work? I'm just getting into videography and had an HV30 anyway for videos here on earth. I'm bummed to hear bad things about Canon considering I have one.

The blessing in disguise I suppose is the fact my HV30 will now be safe while I can dedicate a new camera to completely fuck up.

Thanks,
Adam

I think he only jumped it a couple times before he stopped doing any jumping
