    Hope someone can give me some info.

    I started messing around with a video camera this year on the one and only property I have permission to hunt. Not a quality buck spot at all, but I did manage to get some great footage of a very small buck at 6 yards from the ground, which got me hooked on trying to film some hunts. I'm wondering what equipment uses though?

    I have a JVC Everio hard drive cam, but I'm thinking about upgrading to an High-Def handheld model. I know most people use a fluid head mount on a camera arm, but I was wondering what's recommended, or any other ideas.

    Thanks for the help, and hopefully I'll have some footage for everyone before too long!
