Idea for a dive video
« on: December 31, 2007, 02:17:03 PM »
Just got a new 2GB SD card for my digital camera, and I think I've got a good idea.

I'm going to find a way, to attach the camera, to my BCD, and just let it run in video mode, during the whole dive.

That way, insead of a few pictures, I'd have the whole dive on video.  Their should be enough light, with the good water clarity for some great shots.

I'll let you know how it works out.

sounds like a good idea, however, some camera's in movie mode can only capture a few minutes worth of filming before it has to stop to write the data down to the card.  Better check that first
