My InGameCamera!

NiceButDim

S**t Happens!!
Hey there people I thought I would post up my progress on my InGameCamera!

firstly a little about what it is!
A while back i kinda got a little frustrated that I couldnt video the game at the same time I played in paintball, as I had to decide if I wanted to play or video! usually when I played someything would happen and I wished I had that on camera, but when I was not playing and was videoing I wished I was playing! :( so it was a lose lose situation :(

anyway thats when I decided to make my own InGameCamera where I could play at the same time and also video the game without to much hassle! I also didnt want to spend much money :p ....................yep I know Im a tipical student ;)

this some pics of my InGameCamera, the camera it's self isnt really any bother but the backpack is still a little bulky so I will be spending sometime over the next few months to see if I can improve it!

I would also like to mention that I havent fully tested this yet so knowing my luck the quality will be rubbish! :( but I will be testing it to the max down at Lord Of The Blings :)


This as you can see is me with the InGameCamera, the camera is the small black thing on the side of the mask, (im sure you guessed that but I thought I would say just incase :p )


this is another pic to show it doesnt get in the way when Im shooting :)


this is just a little sample of what sees!


this is just a close range but I am fairly sure the picture quality should be ok on the whole!



as I said I havent really tested it that much as I been really busy, but I will have it down at the blings so if anyone wants to have a look at it then they are more than welcome to! Also if you have any questions you can ask me here aswell!

hope you like what I have done so far though :)

What you need is a transmitter set up so that you don not need to carry your camera on you back. I have had a look at this for some time but with the camera and transmitter reciever set up its close to £200 have alook here http://www.rfconcepts.co.uk/helmet_cameras.htm

you can have up to 5 camera inputs and switching controls also so the whole team can video for you as the same time

if you can get it down lots cheaper than this let me know might have a set up off you

hi there yeh Flaming Dave on your comments on the wireless transmitter I first thought it would be a good idea due to less things to carry but this is only if you know the terane (spellin???) as there are different things you have to think of, distance, things in the way of transmitter etc. also you need somewhere to put the recording device while your no where near it! which also may cause some problems!
so i decided to have the recording device on me the whole time!
I have got a wireless transmitter camera which gives fairly good quality pictures and will use it at other days but for now I am using this one! the single wirelsess camera and receiver which I got was only £40 but you stille need the recording device etc i have plans on using this camera on my gun so i can see what the gun sees without any wires in the way!

John C, yeh I was showen DanCam a while after I started thinkin of my InGameCam, I have about 4 different small cameras but the one i am going to use is the more expensive one, even though the others are still quite good quality which I got for £30-50

LOL mr15bps it's just the weird flat that i rent, it has a sink in my bed room :p there aint no toilet or bath :p


lol did anyone notice my total PGI advertising? :p with the PGI mag along with the PGI forums website :D hope I earned some browny points ;)


about the DanCam I was wondering if anyone had the 30 mb vid handy which I can download from? as I try to get it from the site but it doesnt have it :( please let me know thanks :)
