excel485 0 #57 February 6, 2009 DSE....You have a TonFly helme!? Have you heard if they will he making a box for it? Im guessin you have the CC1? Mine should be here in a week or so Looking to see how I can attach it to the CC1 with zkulls! Im guessing the only way is if they start making a box Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 5 #58 February 6, 2009 you don't need a box, you *could* mount it straight to the Zkulls system. Put the plug mate straight on the camera (I'd put some kind of rubber or cork matting between them) and you're good to go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
excel485 0 #59 February 6, 2009 HHmmm....well, Ill have to wait and see what its like when my helmet gets here. Im excited to jump the TonFLy...heard lots of good things about it. I just got an email that it shipped today. Hopefully it gets here fast! Any thoughts on pre-ordering it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pattersd 0 #64 February 6, 2009 any chance you can measure where the tripod mounting screw hole is in relation to the lens? is it still centered? in the photo it looks like the plate mounted on the cx100 is forward... Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tunnelfly 0 #65 February 7, 2009 Quote CX100=60i CX105=50i Sony Switzerland advertises for the HDR-CX100E and I guess it's 50i. Sony doesn't seem to be very consistent with this numbering...

DSE 5 #66 February 7, 2009 The only thing consistent about Sony is their inconsistency, or consistent lack of consistency. this morning I was speaking with a Sony rep about the model numbers and he told me that Sony had gone to the 3 digit model numbers to get the camera out of other single digit product confusion. Hmmm... Really? "You sure it's not because the new Panasonic AVCHD camera is the HS100? I'm clueless as to who came first, Sony or Panny, but I was aware of the Sony model number for at least 60 days before Panny quietly leaked theirs. I have no idea what was going on inside Panny in that same time frame. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kingbunky 3 #68 February 10, 2009 i noticed (on the spec sheet) under Still Image Recording that the last thing mentioned is Still Recording during Movie (Dual Rec): YES (2.3M, unlimited). does this mean that you can take an unlimited (until you fill up the memory) number of 2.3 M stills while recording video? will a bite/tongue switch through the hype-eye controller work with it?"Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."

Superfletch 1 #69 February 10, 2009 After reading many of the reviews on this camera and such, that is my understanding, however the limit is in the speed it will do it. If I'm not mistaken, it will take an unlimited amount but at a speed that will only allow perhaps 3-4 shots during the freefall portion of a skydive. Someone else can correct me if I'm wrong.

billvon 2,915 #74 February 10, 2009 If it's anything like the HC5, then it will be pretty slow. The HC5 works with the Hypeye but with the problems people have mentioned (i.e. it's really slow.) The HC5 is also limited to very few still shots and has all the usual problems of trying to shoot stills through a video camera lens. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
excel485 0 #75 February 10, 2009 So this is gonna take a hype eye? Glad to hear the quality is as good as the mc1!! Cant wait to get my hands on one soon! I think I may just have to pre order form crutchfield from that link someone posted Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
