Bear Video!!

[Mayfly]

I am working on a Bear Hunting video. We are filming near Hinckely, MN.

We have some more filming to do so we we can get this thing together so it will be a couple weeks before it is done.

Here is a small clip from the 1st day!!

Enjoy!

That was really cool. What scared them?.......a bigger bear.?

[Mayfly]

We think maybe there was a bigger bear back in the woods somewhere.

Those 3 cubs were pretty spooked from something. When they finally ran off we were sure that a monster bear was going to come in but we saw nothing the rest of the night. The next 2 days the bait was not hit. It is now getting hit daily. We will be back out on Sunday. I would like to head up Saturday but I don't know if we can swing it.

I have some more video I am going to put on here in a couple minutes.

Just some more preview stuff. The video that I am showing here may not be used in the final cut. We have a lot better stuff and don't want to make it 30 minutes.

Stay tuned.......

Good stuff Tim...

For those of you attempting to view I recommend a high speed connection. Without one you may have to wait a bit....

I have a Panasonic PV-G250...I think. I know it is the 250. The new one is the 300:




For quality you need the 3ccd technology. These cameras have come down a lot in price since last year!!

Also if you are putting video onto the computer there are a lot of different ways to do it. To get the quality right you may have to play with your programs a little.

I go through 2 different programs to get my quality up and my file sizes as smll as possible.

Nice camera.  I use the same one and love it so far. 

[Mayfly]

I Have to say though...Low light conditions the camera is pretty bad. That is my only complaint. When we went bear hunting we still had shooting light but not camera shooting light. Besides that I love it. Small and very light...easy to work with.
