I couldn't find info on the film camera he mentions, but the Digital Rebel XT and XTi share a 95%, 0.8mag viewfinder. Based on info from various boards, I would hazard a guess that the film camera has a 100%, 1.0mag viewfinder.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.

skykank 0 #104 January 27, 2009 I will start to shoot some skydive pics this weekend, I have about 800 video jumps but never made still pics!!! I bought a rebel xti and will use the 18 55 mm kit lens with a .43 wide angle lens. Is it enough to start up and get used with it ??? Tks a lot P.s - sorry for the english Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 2,380 #105 January 27, 2009 >Is it enough to start up and get used with it ? Sure. The XTi with the 18-55mm lens alone (at widest) seems to me to be just a bit tighter than a typical 4:3 standard definition video camera with a .5 lens on it. So it's not a bad way to start. You may rapidly want a better lens, but that's all part of trying stuff out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RossDagley 0 #106 February 12, 2009 Quote I have a D2X too but no way in hell am I going to jump it Record jump or not. I think my D200 is on the heavy side already, but def. worth it. My D80 is better for my neck though Just jumped my 1dn2 for the first time this week. Felt heavy as hell on the ground but was fine to jump with (did a mix of belly external video and freefly). The image quality is lovely, but the 8fps is what is the killer deal - I wouldn't want to jump it every jump for sure but for occasional use it's absolutely fine.
