Title: First hunt with new camera.
Post by: DMP on December 18, 2011, 12:27:59 PM
Bought a HD camera this week mainly for turkey hunting but will use it for deer and the family as well. Took it out for the first time yesterday and got some good footage. It gets shaky at times but I don't have a tree arm mount yet and just had it resting on the shooting rail of my climber. Ive got a lot to learn about editing. I used the software that came with the cam to edit it. Tried windows movie maker but it would not recognize the files for some reason. Anyway, its right at 10 mins long. 34 sec got cut out when I uploaded it to youtube. Does youtube always cut videos down to 10 mins or is it the editing software that did it?

Let me know what you think.

Cannon vixia HFM 40
Reviews on the cam are great and cannon had a special going where their cameras were half off. :icon_thumright:

Plan on getting a mic for it and maybe some different lenses to play with and need to get some camo skins before turkey season.
