Hunting camera/video

[ptbobdemaria]

Hi guys. I looking for a nice video camera that I can mount to my shotguns, rifles, and bow while hunting. Does anyone have a recommendation for me? I'd like to keep it under $300. Also, does the camera generally come with a mount for bow rifle shotgun... or I have to buy a mount for each one. Thanks guys... and ladies. Have fun be safe. Bobby

One of the best, and what I am familiar with, is the GoPro (series).

They are available, new, from just over $100 for the original HERO to over $400 for the HERO4 Silver.

I have two, a HERO3 White edition and a HERO3+ Black.

There is a noticeable difference in the video between the two - specifically in low-light and fast-action recording. With that said, either is suitable for the majority of my recording.

While they come with some mounts, depending on which kit you buy, you'll probably have to buy specific aftermarket mounts for your bow & long guns.

If you get one, you may be surprised at what you start videoing.

And like optics, I recommend you buy the best you can afford in the beginning.
