  4. Why can't I add fill flash without the shutter speed automaticly dropping to 1/90? 1/90 is the maximun synchro speed possible in your camera.. _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  5. Wich camera have you got? every camera has a sinchro-flash speed, going from 1/90 up to 1/300... it depends on the model. Fill flash is the best way, and better if you use a diffused light, by putting a diffuser in front of the flash. check out my web site, many pictures with fillflash at 1/250. _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  6. May be yes, may be not.. but I remember when I was at my static line course (96) tha I saw that helmet falling close to me ( I was just landed), the camera did't brake, just the door tape broke, it was an old video8. I guess the system should be valid for light weight camera helmet (side camera). I guess pc is not the answer but a good and well done camera helmet is the answer, with all the equipment well disposed... _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com

  8. The Dickinson has a parachute in the inside, the bridle goes from the pc to the cut away handle, so when you throw away the helmet your hand will take the parachute out, I saw it working and it works well. No extra weight (not more than a wide angle adapter...). _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  9. that's what I hope Quade!! _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  10. The need of it, in my opinion is to avoid to kill somebody in the ground and to avoid to keep a falling helmet on my head when I'll open the reserve. My english sucks, hope you understand me... _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  11. Not kidding, the system exists, I saw it 7 years ago, I can't remembar the manufacturer, the small parachute was inside the helmet between top plate and head. My question is: why today nobody sell it?? _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  12. Easy.. that's not my job.. _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  13. The "N" version has a plastic bayonet lens attach instead of a metal bayonet. If you do not need to change different lenses I suggest you the N version, lighter and cheaper... _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  14. I was wondering why in new camera helmets there is no recovery system but just a cut away system. Does anybody have a motivation about it? Thanks! _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  15. Hi, I'm currently using a VX2000 and a GL1, to avoid problem with vibrations, you need to use the aperture priority program and set f 1.6, in the sony you need to use both the ND filters, in the GL1 (or GL2) you need to use the internal ND filter and an external ND-8 filter (I suggest you a B+W filter for wide angle). No problem , even in freeflying at very high speeds... _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  16. Hi, have you guys ever tried the new trv950, I had the old one but there was many problems with the stabilizer. Does anybody tried this new version?? _____________________________________________ Roberto Mettifogo, Photographer - Cameraflyer www.robertomettifogo.com
  17. Hi everybody, new pictures at http://www.beyondtheultraworld.com Thanks Roberto Mettifogo
  18. Hi, Raynox made a 0,3 semi-fish eye lens for 50$, very nice, very small and you will never have fog in the lens..
  19. Hallo happy people, there is a new website, freefall photography by italian photographer Roberto Mettifogo (me), check out www.beyondtheultraworld.com , choose portfolio/pictures. Ciaoo
  20. Hi sony pc7, 10, 1,2,3,4,5,8,9, got the same good quality. pc100 and 110 are better. JVC, Canon and others are not good as Sony. Difference between pc4 and pc5 is only the memory stick for still pictures, but you don't need it to skydive videos. Ciaoo
  21. Hi, you can choose a product from www.pinnaclesys.com . I used many pinnacle cards and they are Good, if you have the dv/in in your jvc I suggest you the "studio dv", or if you want spend more (1000 $) the dv500 is cool. Bye
  22. I have a canon gl1, the only way to use it in free fall is to set it at f1,6 and auto expos.time, does anybody knows if the sony vx2000 and/or the pd150 works with the same settings??? does anybody trys the vx2000 at high speed (head down, standup position?
