Re: hd video from the airplane

That nflight cam looks tempting, a little pricy though, considering it's lmtd use (for flight). Im afraid though, if it's a CMOS sensor, then depending on the mounting, you'll end up with the same problem. Since first encountering this problem, I've done a lot of experimenting and research.

hd video from the airplane

Hi, I own a Sony CX-7 I purchased to shoot short aviation videos. These are from single engine, non pressurized airplanes. So as you can imagine, there's a fair amount of noise and vibration. I have noticed that I cannot get a clear image/video with this. The video always comes out looking "haz...
