TDU Helmet Cam

Played with my cheap little spy camera in the helmet. Nice idea but a
bit too jumpy...

I was just thinking about doing this and thought i would check youtube first...this is awesome, I would think some simple vid editing could take out the date stamp.

what kind of cam were you using? I was looking at just some kind of pencam or something...also..is hat an an-tir lion on the back of your shield?

Yes, little spy cam I bought on ebay.

Yes it's an An Tir lion courtesy of a certain count from An Tir and his sense of humor

I have slow motion footage as well but it won't match up. I do plan to get some real time 3rd person to go with future 1st person...

A suggestion on the helmet cam. A camera with a wider angle lens would probably make things feel a little less jumpy and would give you more of a view of the action (opponent's foot position, you're guard etc...) Probably not viable with the camera you've got but something to think about if you're up for it. Thanks again for all your work on these videos.

this is a really cool idea....!

if you don't mind me asking....how did you set up the camera and stuff?

Very cool. Would be cool to do a side by side with video of the fight taken from the sidelines.
