I think for training, the hat cams work best as long as you have a second video to see overall
All good points. The camera glasses idea is really good. Just walking up and recording while checking score is so simple and least time consuming.
This. I just picked up a pair of the camera glasses.
You really should get in the habit of following the RO as your hits are scored whether you recording them or not. It is simply good follow through for completing a stage and getting feedback on your performance. I think the head cam footage is more of a novelty. Even the regular footage starts to feel a little pointless after you are out of those first few years of competing. I've seen people more concerned with camera than doing what they need to be ready to shoot the stage the best way possible. If it becomes a distraction, it isn't worth it.
I tried the hatcam using a gopro, amd gto is spot on. For me, it was more a pita than it was useful. Will not be bothering with it again.
The only one I've seen that I thought had a use past just entertainment was THIS ONE on the Shooting USA TV show; it shows exactly what the shooter is seeing when he looks down the sights......not exactly practical for match use however
Man,The hits are recorded on the score sheet. And the shooter should know what his hits are if he is calling his shots
Plus waiting on the videographer will slow up the match
Man,
I hate to agree , but SuperNY10rounder is correct!
and we need more tapers & brass pickers, less videowhatever he called them!
I'd like to see some footage from this setup....
here's mine, I believe the value is nothing more than entertainment, to show people what they missed, or what it sort of looks like when you're shooting.
I certainly don't need video to find out what I was thinking while I was shooting. I should be thinking the same thing every time, shoot the target, get to the next one.
ok, now I'm dizzy and almost threw up all over my keyboard ....not exactly what I was hoping for. like you said it points too high, kinda midway between a hatcam and that crazy "training system" in the link I posted.
PS - am I supposed to be moving that fast during stages? Ima need more coffee before matches if I am...
