The camera's didnt shut down because they got too cold. Most probably wrong batteries (?). The camera's actually get friggin' warm because they're busy shooting or videotaping all the time. My camera never went below 10 degrees even when it was at 32km on -50C. You can get that info from the exif information of the images. T

That is a cool lookin' movie and I like it but how high did the weather balloon go and how long did it take to get up to the highest altitude from sea level? I'm only just wondering. Maybe I will do this one day!

It took me a litle bit to figure out, but what actually happened was the lack of air pressure shut the cameras off. I used water proof durable cameras thinking this would help me. It actually hurt me. I am preparing for abother launch in a week or 2 using the same cameras, but this time they r not water proff and they are actually going to be controlled by an Arduino Uno microcontroller which I'm hoping will turn the cameras on even if they shut off (Which I don't think they will this time.)

They usually go about 90,000 ft but there was no altimeter and the cameras shut off after 14 minutes so its tough to say.
