unico1 Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Hi. Any advice would be greatfull. I am thinking of getting a camera to film some footage whilst on the pigeons and clays and unsure where to look. I think the go pro ones are the best but seem quite pricey. Will need to fit 20 and 12 semi auto barrels. Thanks and happy new year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.philmypower. Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Don't be drawn in by cheap cameras. If filming shooting you Need around 60 fps for decent results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delburt0 Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 I see that it's only 25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.philmypower. Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Do you know if it films in full 1080p Looks very similar to the bullet cams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 I've used an Action Cam #3 720P HD with good results. They retail around the £50 mark and are good value for money. The recoil of a 12g shotgun did not affect the camera. http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=action+cam+3+hd+720p&tag=googhydr-21&index=aps&hvadid=28639846980&hvpos=1t1&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=201245546221187329&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=e&hvdev=c&ref=pd_sl_16ywixwi4h_e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.philmypower. Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Click on tech data on link Phil looks like 720p to me .. To be honest with you buddy, think you've found a bargain there. Depending on what you want to do with your recordings but if only using occasionally for personal use I'd say defiantly worth a bash. Still think once you get one, you'll enjoy using it and end up getting a go po. Let me no how you get on, be interested to see results. All the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeker Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) Have a look at the Mobius camera ... a general purpose action cam ... usable as a dash cam ..starts around £60 ... plus accesory bits ... Looks quite Isle as a gun cam It's on my shopping list. Edited January 4, 2014 by seeker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best I start work tomorrow so won't be able to get one or use it for a few weeks, if I do manage to get it I will post a video on here in the foreseeable future...

The tricky bit it is going to be mounting it so it won't get in the way or be destroyed by recoil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unico1 Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 I think the only way to mount to barrel would be electrical tape either underneath or to one side or maybe cable ties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aris Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 You can barrel mount with this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Universal-Rifle-Scope-Torch-Laser-Mount-Bracket-Velcro-Fitting-Lamping-Air-gun-/300998773095 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aris Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 The Sony HDR-AS15 is supposed to be good. Does 120fps too. The srspower YouTube channel uses it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aris Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 I see the Go Pro 3 Black edition does 240fps - though in low resolution and is fairly pricey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
