Canon HV20..

Going to do some HD filming this winter.. the helmet cams out there don't offer HD but i can do DV mode... The HD is amazing.. Was taking vids of the stream.. looks super professional... psyched...

Now i have to wait for blu-ray and hd dvd recorders to come down in price...

Sweet! Certainly not HD, but I plan to bring our Canon DC10 out which would be a big upgrade from the A700 point and shoot video mode.

Nice... We'll have some good vid from the Hunter day...
My next task is to figure out how to get the video onto my PC... So far my laptop doesn't want to play... Going to check out a friends Mac and see how it works...
Also need to try out different video software...

Indeed. The big turns on Hellgate, Minya and East Side are awesome spots to shoot vid.

You might want to check out this thread if you haven't already, there are a few video editor suggestions in there:

No info on HD editing... Need something that works with HD.. If i get a Mac then it's a non-issue - I'll get it with FinalCut HD preloaded..

Good point, I didn't really read through it again. I thought Yardsale Dad mentioned that he was doing some HD stuff in that thread though. Maybe I'm thinking of a different thread though..


EDIT: I just checked and Sony Vegas, which was recommended in the above thread, has HD capability in it's Platinum version. The Pro version adds the capability to burn Blu-ray disks. I used to trail version of Vegas to make a movie or two last year and was really impressed with it, but then again I don't know anything about movie making..

I actually do have him on tape with a camcorder in hand. It did look like he was filming. But, I'm starting to think that perhaps he forgot to pop a tape in :dunce:

I think I know exactly what you're talking about and FYI that clip was posted months ago in one of the Hunter vids... :roll:
