Camera Options For Filming Your Own Hunt

[@richardpiotrowski1043]

I quit caring about digital photography about the time the manufacturers started integrating video into DSLRs... Now, I'm just a Shooter and a KZbin shooting (precision firearms, precision airguns, hunting, H 45, IV8888, etc, etc, etc) video addict. I'm relatively new to the Newberg Channel and enjoy the Style and Class that you guys display. You've become the first channel I look for when I connect to KZbin and look at my Subscriptions category . I really enjoyed hearing you talk about the different equipment, though. Happy New Year.

Thanks for subscribing. We are interested in hearing what people find helpful to filming their own hunts. We try to balance the crazy investment we have in gear with what is practical for the person with above-average interest in filming their own activities. Best to you in 2019.

I have tried to film a hunt for the first time this year, didn't pan out so well. In fact, I have a fair amount of the camera equipment you have mentioned. Great job on this video, I hope you have a blessed and happy new year. Keep up the great videos my friend. Dale

Awesome Dan man I’m excited to film next years hunt I have Canon and didn’t know about slow motion on it.

[@boomerrangerron]

Great video and you’ve made my day because I’ve put my camera package together already and it’s right in line with your suggestions! My cam corder is a Canon Vixia G21, and my POV is a TACTACAM 4.0 (upgraded from a 2.0 version). I added a good quality shotgun mic las year and use a Fourth Arrow camera arm (tree mounted) with their fluid head. I use the remote control to self film and I also carry but have not used yet my SONY NEX-6 which also takes great video. I bought a adapter to mount on my scope but have yet to learn how to operate they yet. So my biggest issue is simple it’s a lot more gear to carry even in My Tensig fanny pack and it greatly complicates the hunt itself! Hunting undetected and getting shot opportunities can. E a challenge and self filming does add to the complications. That said you did a superb job and thank you to both you and Randy for sharing! 🎯

Dan the cell phone clip was hilarious. Great tips!

[@pehenryjr]

Thank you!

[@jeremyansell1274]

I know you guys run a ton of video equipment. Charging is a must. Can you guys do a video or give an insight on the charging gear you run and ant tips for better charging in the backcountry?

[@Fresh_Tracks]

We've done one. It is here in our video list somewhere.

Thanks for the video tips! I just purchased a Sony AX53 that I plan on using in the field. I've used my phone a lot and phoneskope.

[@riverrightoutdoors]

Great info thank you

[@ericwiitala5407]

Great tips Dan!! I think for next year I might go with the phone, phoneskope and spotter. I'm in the market for a spotting scope anyways.

[@Jimbowiejr]

Thanks

Yes I am a subscriber and my favorite dairy queen treat is a large blizzard butterfinger with extra butterfinger bits yummy...

[@ScotWalt858]

Nicely done. Thanks!

[@DIYWhitetail]

When recording with a cell phone how do you get the footage into adobe premiere? It always says it’s in a wrong format. Thanks

[@joeypage9268]

Fuck yes thank you. Straight to the point & informative. Great rundown

[@jeffrownd5530]

Excellent info 👍

[@garywallette687]

Hey Randy have you ever seen Bigfoot while out hunting I am interested if so let me know please..

[@bushcraftnorway]

😆😆😆

[@What_Fred_Said]

What about video glasses?

[@RatdogDRB]

Good stuff there Dan, thank you for this sort of information. The air gun shooters are mounting these point/shoot cameras directly to their rifle mounted scopes (using the viewfinder as the eyepiece of the scope's user end), and some have mounting systems which allow for the phone to nest parallel to the rifle scope and direct a view of the shot (probably with a mirror)from the side, while the shooter uses the scope in a traditional manner. My question, would cameras hold up to the recoil of a centerfire cartridge if an attempt to use these types of platforms were tried? Most of what I see, are "PCP" (Pre-Charged Pneumatic) air rifles.

[@RatdogDRB]

Here's what I was talking about previously: utahairguns.com/side-shot-phone-mount/ And, it would appear they hold up to centerfire rifle recoil. They're on sale, have one on order.

[@sapperROSS]

the sony alpha series is pretty good! the a6000 doesn't have an aux jack :( so the 6300 or 6500 is a must.

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Yup. We have one of each.

[@sapperROSS]

same! just need to make some hunting videos with it. what's your most used lens?

[@huntnusa659]

Hey, thanks for the video. What tripod are you using....the one with the blue collar in this video? Thanks :)

[@85ZERO17]

THE CANON SL2 OR SONY RX100?

[@ramirezde1]

Great info! Any thoughts on video editing software?

[@dankwilde]

We use Adobe Premiere. But I started out just with the free iMovie software.

[@teamkrueger6948]

I recognize those moose, you must have been by canyon ferry lake?

[@forestdynamics3408]

panasonic G7

[@jahjr1989]

What external microphone do you recommend? I've got a sonya6000

[@dankwilde]

We prefer the Rode Videomic Pro+: amzn.to/2SR5jC4 A cheaper option would be the videomicro

[@isaacwhitney8257]

Do you need a film permit for a KZbin channel on public land

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Yes, if you monetize the channel. If it is only for personal interest and no commercial use, no permit required.

[@albusai]

Are there any video camera whether proof?

[@Fresh_Tracks]

Some of the GoPro cameras, but they have other limitations to be the "one camera for all uses."

[@whitetailsup760]

My thing is learning how to edit

[@bushcraftnorway]

If you film with your phone, DON'T FILM VERTICALLY!!! Flip your friggin phone!!!

[@agomodern]

I just made the same comment a year late. lol

#1 Cellphone: stop holding it vertically. Nothing is more annoying than seeing only a small strip of vertical video.
