Scope Cam on a Springer

[milegajo 595]

Here is a clip of some test shots fired from the TH208 (which, believe it or not, after my caresses fires more smoothly than it sounds!)Seben Camera Mount, Hitachi HDC-1495E

Forgive the poor quality but my netbook ain't got much juice for editing.

Some of the results are obvious, but the most annoying is how close the camera ends up in your moosh. This negates prone shooting unless you shift your scope forward and re-zero.Any pointers would be much appreciated as I hope to obtain some hunting footage for you fellas.

I love the fact that whilst you filmed that your phone went off, was it me sending you syrup?

 

Well that proves you can film a springer with a solid state cam, I may have to invest now! Loving your last shot knocking the target off with the smk's raw power. Keep up the good work dude!

Nice one Mike, think I'll have a go at that with the HW77K. Also just watched the video of your visit to the police station too, he he. Did you ever get a response in writing? Surely they must have to if formally requested?

 

I work for a Local Authority and do it all the time

Nope they didn't give a poop. I believe I deserved even just an f off in writing but never even received what was promised. Ahh well, airguns are all that matter to me!

[Elliott 436]

Oh well

 

Hope you start to upload some hunting vids, I've had a go with my Seben mount and digital camera and haven't found it very easy

Definitely not for mooching. More a static hunting rig. Hunters Vermin has a nifty little barrel/scope mounted jobber, but i do like to see the crosshairs.

[Mawders 595]

Ate have to agree with you I to like to see the cross hairs at times in vids, you get a more in depth look at hold over and such. Stick with it mate!

Got this after going out 'hunting' straight after getting in from work at 17:00.

 

Didn't get to eat. (See vid)

Some woman brought her dog for walkies right in front of the warren i'd been sitting at for 2 hours (turns out she's the landowners horse training assistant).

 

The only shot I got was this one an hour later,

And to add insult to injury...my dinner managed to die behind nettles, thistles and an impenetrable barbed wire fence.

 

Hungry...but I've had a coffee and biscuits now!
