Video Camera Tests

[N402RH]

I have been in the middle of trying to get in flight video for some time now; I am actually on Camera Number 3. I have a RAM mount hooked to the roll bar.

Camera 1 - Sony DVD (2 years old)
Nice Picture but if you touch any part of the plane or connect it to the mount it ruins the disk.

Camera 2 - Sony DCR-SR40
No Remote Connection, no memory stick for video.

Camera 3 ? JVC GZMG255US
I really liked this camera, you can record on Hard Disk or SD card. It worked really well mounted on the RAM mount and it would record 30 minutes on a 2 Gig SD Card. The picture was sharper than the Sony DVD, but the colors and exposure were not as good.

This is what I am waiting for ? April Delivery
Camera 4 ? JVC GZ-HD7 High Def, Hard Disk, SD Card, 3 CCD, full 1080i and the first JVC consumer camcorder to adopt a Fujinon lens. Fujinon lenses are found on JVC?s professional cams.
