Helcam ironbark removal natural crotch rigged

Ekka · 22nd March 2007, 04:40 AM

2 neighbours plus the tree owner all pitched in to get rid of this.

The guy with the shed was sick of the leaves

The guy with the pool was sick of the leaves.

The customer was sick of having the gum tree, they didn't want it to interfere with the new fence going up and know how big they can get.

1.30min and 7.7mb in WMV

Nice video Ekka. What camera do you have?

TREE-SURFER · 22nd March 2007, 03:47 PM

Excellent video, good take down. I love spots like the one in the vid. It shows the customer how good we are at what we do.

Ekka · 23rd March 2007, 02:42 AM

I have a 580 resolution helcam running into a Sony recorder.

That was a fun removal, I buggered up the shot of the other head bombed out, pity, it was a ripper but I had the video on pause by accident!!!!!!!

Hows this, you can see the camera on the helmet and the little camel pack everything else is stowed away in.

TREE-SURFER · 29th March 2007, 10:40 AM

is it just a normal viddy camera with an attachment?

Ekka · 29th March 2007, 02:21 PM

Yeah, the helcam and mic and LANC on/off button plug into the camera which is all in the camel pack.

The bullet cam I use is top class 580 resolution and very clear and adapts quickly to light/shade etc. Very good camera, colours are great etc.

The camcorder is a Sony digital DTR15V, bout 3 maybe 4 years old now but very good still and strong. I repaired it once for $500 rather than buy new as has all the features and if you wanted a comparable replacement it is around $1800 these days.

TREE-SURFER · 29th March 2007, 03:40 PM

I gotta get one of those bullet cams, coz you got the same camera as me. How ironic is that please.

Ekka · 30th March 2007, 12:16 AM

well those Sony's, if you flip open that cover should have an AV in jack right down the bottom ... and closer to the top a LANC jack.

Those there are the winning tickets. The LANC controller is a Sony idea, it's a remote on/off, over rides the normal thumb controls of record or playback. When the little LED remote is green the helcam is on standby, when it is red (push button once) it is recording, when it starts flashing you got 5 mins tape left.

Trust me, dont scab out on the bullet cam. This bullet cam actually shoots higher resolution than the normal camera. when you cut a DVD for TV it's friggin sweet I tell you, even the low quality WMV internet files are pretty good. A company over here does it, they supply our cops, special ops etc, and if you know anything about Aussie military you'd know we are one of the smartest players out there.
