  1. Don't know if anyone is still reading this thread, but I have a question about the parallax issues you get when you have still camera mounted on the top of your head and video on the side. My set up: I have a FF3 with and HC42, Sony .6X Wide Angle on the side and a Cannon XTi, Standard 18-55mm mounted with a Stroboframe on the top. I've been trying to angle my video camera "in" and "up" so that at about 3 feet away my video and still camera are framed/focused on the same point. Is this the wrong way to sight it in. If I follow quade's set up, will I be able to have a subject in frame on both my video and still if I'm close up? (It seems like I'll either have the XTi in frame if I adjust for the vertical distance of 9" or I'll have the HC42 in frame if I adjust for the horizontal distance of 4") Also, I have not seen the "mounting pin" on my FF3, am I missing something? I've cut my foam pads to get the correct angle every time I close my clam shell. Starting to wish I had gone with a flat top pro or narrow....doh! maybe I'll get a work helmet and keep my FF3 for playing...
