If you film your hunts which camera do you have?
My buddies have XL1 and a XL2 they are looking to upgrade to HD soon.
Yea i film. i have a Sony Handy Cam HD. i do it for home Videos and send to friends and Family. it will make great memories when im old.
i bought it from Best Buy 3 years ago. when i deer hunt i have a camera arm i take with me. and when i Turkey hunt i have a little tripod to use.
check out my youtube page and you can see the quality of the camera

I do but I just have a little Sony Handycam. Wish I could afford a HD.
I'm gonna start this spring, I bought one of the i-kam pair of glasses.
The camera that I have run for the last 3 springs was the Canon XH A1
This will be my first year, I wish I could have done it 20 years ago. Looked into the ikam's, but were told do not hunt them is it is wet. So Ibought a GoPro 960hd. It was 170.00 and is water proof to180 ft. Comes with all kinds of mounts even a head band mount. It records in Hd at 30 or 60 FPS.
Can not wait....

How are you planning on mounting it? I thought about one.. but didn't see a suitable mount that would allow me to still wear a cap and face mask.. are you going with the headband around your cap or somthing??
I got the Ikams for Christmas so I am going to try them.. but most of the time I try to use my handcam and tripod.. this is only for those time when I can't use that..
wv. I am planning in just wearing the head band mount. I took the camera out shed hunting several days ago. The video was great, I received a phone call (cell) when I was in the woods. The sound quality blew me away, I could hear the caller like he was setting next to me. I am planning on purchasing a spare battery. They only give about 2.5 hours of record time. The nice thing about the camera is the one touch video record mode. It turns the camera on and starts recording. There is a very light "beep" when it starts recording, so you know it is on. I am also going to purchase a handelbar mount, I will put it on my bow stabeliser for archery hunting.
Check out the vidoes that have been posted on youtube.
I can't wait to give it a turkey bhunt test ride.....
I film my bow hunts with a Sony HVR-A1U.Good camera for the money.
I've been videoing turkey and some hunts for about 5 years. I use a Sony DCR VX 2100 on a Sony VCT-870RM tripod. The tripod is the key. It plugs into the camera and has an arm that allows you to run the camera, zoom in and out. Turn on and off and take a picture. That was my best investment. Before that I had a cheap tripod. If you didn't move much it worked ok but it wasn't very smooth and made the film jump on screen. You can go to my youtube site TRKYHTR1 and check out some of my videoing.

Great videos guys! :icon_thumright:
I'm gonna give it a try this season. I just bought a Canon HFS20 Hi def camera, VariZoom Tripod with 65mm Fluid Head and a Manfrotto 521PROi remote. Now all I need is some turkeys to show off a little before they get a face full of HeviShot. :you_rock: :you_rock: :you_rock:
Good Luck Everybody!
Canon XHa1 for me too. I have had one since 2007.
