        Hey guys. Not sure if you will like this or not but I have just got a POV camera to film a bit of my hunting. It is worn on the left side of my head on a headlamp strap. What do you think. All comments welcome.

        Just a quick stumpin video I made to test the camera

        A day out stumpin

          Lots of potential there for fun, with no advantage over the game in hunting, as trail cams can have. Just a clean fun way to record your outings, hunting or not. I’d love to have had one of those back in my whitewater kayaking days, so long as it was waterproof. 😆 Image is clear, though a guy would really need to perfect slow head movement to keep things from jumping around too much. And walking in directions where your shadow doesn’t always show. Does it have a remote telephoto button? Self-focusing, apparently. A program for adding narrative and music? Field electronics and I don’t mix, mostly because I’m electronics-challenged. The hardest part for you may be finding audiences to share all that footage with. 😀 It’s all fun, dave

              Thanks Dave.
              No telephoto, but you can buy screw on telephoto filters. You can use just about any movie editing software for music etc. It is water resistent but you can buy a fully waterproof case for diving, surfing, kyaking etc.

                  I like the concept, it is just like the helmet cams for riding bike and motorcycles. The problem I would have is that I’m generally so worked up after I shoot an animal that it would just be a big blur. 😯
                  Cool video. Thanks for sharing. Can’t wait for the hunting footage.
