X170 Helmet Camera, first footage

[White Noise]

i just find it wraps around branches and locks off on itself easier than a thicker strop. it is nice having the smaller line though. im not so keen on the cinch either.

 

Steve was it trango cinch you were using .

[Steve Bullman]

[White Noise]

Cheers . Where abouts did you get yours from ? . Is £ 60 about right.

[Steve Bullman]

Steve

 

If you ever need a full time groundie i will gladly come work for you!

 

never worked under a climber that thinks where to cut to make it easy for everyone.

 

Nice job, camera looks good , bit of a fish bowl effect on it but nothing to worry about

[Steve Bullman]

thanks mate.

 

the fishbowl effect is necessary to get as much in the view as this one does i think....certainly within this price range anyway

cetainlly dosn`t ruin the viewing, good piece of kit that.

This cam has wicked trsining potential, what better way for students to see how it is done than through the eys and hands of a skilled tree worker.

 

Awsome bit of kit and I want one!

 

be great if you was twos up and could get footage of eachother doing certain rigging reducing techniques.

 

whats the battery life and memory capacity like?
