  1. Did a search but didnt find anything . What would be the bottom line price for tandem rig rentals to maintain them, any ideas? I have 2 vectors.

  2. I use croakies on my gatorz and it works perfectly to cover that annoying thing up. A friend will bail you out of jail , a REAL friend will be sitting next to you in the cell slapping your hand saying "DUDE THAT WAS AWSUM " ................
  3. Point is, people have a tendency to say they have more experience than they actually do. Which leaves us to not answer questions from them.

  4. What i'm referring to is his profile is not filled out . It says he has 2500 jumps in 5 yrs. But the numbers he gave on all of his canopy experience didn't add up to the huge number of jumps he had in 5 yrs. He had less than 1000 according to his real numbers.

  5. Your jump numbers aren't adding up here? A friend will bail you out of jail , a REAL friend will be sitting next to you in the cell slapping your hand saying "DUDE THAT WAS AWSUM " ................
  6. I think this one is a no brainer! A friend will bail you out of jail , a REAL friend will be sitting next to you in the cell slapping your hand saying "DUDE THAT WAS AWSUM " ................
  7. My 5d mark 2 does the same thing. Fantastic HD video, but loose frames when you take a still shot during video. A friend will bail you out of jail , a REAL friend will be sitting next to you in the cell slapping your hand saying "DUDE THAT WAS AWSUM " ................
  8. Sorry for the misunderstanding! I didn't read thru all of your posts. I can see you and johnnie marko have some valid points. Personally i think that the bsr's need to read that it is a requirement by all dz's to have a minimum of 200 jumps before putting a go-pro or any other video cam on. I also think it should fall upon the dzo and s&ta to be held responsible if the rule is broken. When they do decide to jump a camera of any sort. There should be an instructional program designed just for jumping camera. Opinions anyone?

  9. Strato is merely stating what most people think about it that are experienced. There are reasons this has been a topic for years now. It is dangerous and if you won't or don't listen to the experienced camera flyer it's just plain stupidity! Are you jumping a gopro or any other type video camera or still?

  12. Jason Bell did this yrs ago on a base jump and multiple other jumps. I should have some photo's some place if i dig deep enough. He called it the rhino cam.

  15. You could get beat up for something like that ! :) I'm curious to see what the rig manufacturer has to say about this? A friend will bail you out of jail , a REAL friend will be sitting next to you in the cell slapping your hand saying "DUDE THAT WAS AWSUM " ................
  16. Just slow it down a little more, depending on how much light you are loosing. I have shot at 60 before without to much motion blur. Depending on how fast a subject is moving around or whatever. Exit shot will get some motion blur and deployment. But even on an overcast day you can shoot 160 and it should be just fine. I don't normally shot shutter priority anymore much though. Once you learn all your manual settings you'll get much nicer results. But that will come with experience later.

  17. Try shutter priority other wise known as (TV) mode. Set it at day light around 250 to 500 will work nicely :) A friend will bail you out of jail , a REAL friend will be sitting next to you in the cell slapping your hand saying "DUDE THAT WAS AWSUM " ................

  20. I have a dvd from a tandem today that needs taken from the disk and sized down for me to send out in an email. I have handbrake here but i don't know how to get it sized down? Is there another program to do this easier?

  24. I couldn't find photo's of the landing area , is it beach landing or not? A friend will bail you out of jail , a REAL friend will be sitting next to you in the cell slapping your hand saying "DUDE THAT WAS AWSUM " ................
  25. I have all 3 of those, and i prefer the optika .3 for handcam since it is the widest low dollar lens of the 2 fisheye lenses. Century baby death is a real nice lens but you will scratch it doing handcams since the hood is made of rubber and would have to taped in place to keep it on . The optika has a metal hood with set screws. My 2 cents :) A friend will bail you out of jail , a REAL friend will be sitting next to you in the cell slapping your hand saying "DUDE THAT WAS AWSUM " ................
