    Thought I'd share. Managed to tag a doe on video, and did some basic editing myself as well for an overall update on my early season so far.

    Still learning a lot. I know I can clean my interviews up, and I need to get a lot less aggressive on the zoom button too. Have a handful of other things I know I can improve on also. But it feels good to get my first successful self filmed hunt.

    Enjoy!

    G30, nice, I keep debating as I want to produce more higher quality videos I want both a new computer set up but also a new Camera as well...currently outside DSLR don't have one I'd take into the woods.

    The refurbished G20 and G30 seem to be the most cost effective and yet show quality footage for someone wanting to do it. Good deal bud...

    ...only one shot seemed odd to me and I used to do them too, is the holding cam exploring food plot where it was just way too close to the face haha! I mean yer perty and all but lol. I bought a cheap tripod to stand cam on or will rest it on four wheeler for those quick discussions, and stand back just a hair.

    Overall bud I loved it though, great footage streamlined together and the interviews flowed I thought.
