Filming gear.

I have been looking for something small that I can bring out to the hills with me.
What are you guys using when you film?
Does it say anywhere what kind of gear tj brings out with him to the slopes? It looks like he upgraded cameras at some point and I'm guessing it is more than I want to spend but it would be nice as his videos always seem to turn out so nice.

The new versions are actually HD (the TZ-5). If you're looking for a cam that can shoot good quality video, really good pics with tons of options, this is a good one. The other nice feature is shooting in 16:9 aspect for a much wider angle. This is nothing compared to a fish-eye lens, but kicks most of my friends Digi's asses with ease.; ▶ Reply to This

i also grabbed the one that shoots to tape rather than hard drive , i really dont like converting the format , it has a bit of a lag when you hit record but overall its a good camera

I'd also recommend looking into a Contour HD helmet cam or a GoPro HD. Both are pretty sick quality and a lot cheaper than the Canon.; ▶ Reply to This
