Thought about investing in a goPro or some camera that I could use for hunting. Well, I just ordered a gooseneck clip on holder for my Galaxy Note 3. My phone has a 64gb memory card and the ability to shoot 4k resolution video and take 13 MP photos. The mount is about 30" I believe. Here is the mount: Amazon.com: BESTEK Cell Phone Clip Holder Stand with Sitck-on Mount + Gooseneck One Clip Clamp mount on car,desk,windshield,dashboard,table for iphone 5,4s,3gs,ipod,gps,PDA,samsung galaxy,HTC, nokia,lg,blackberry holder ect. BTIH750: Cell Phones & Ac I'm thinking I can clip it on to something around me. Bow, treestand, treestep, shotgun, etc... and can film everything I do with my phone. Guess it is worth a shot for next season! Figured I would share.
Just an FYI on this. Unless you have a 4k TV, don't bother to record video on your camera in 4k, you won't be able to see a difference in video quality because your TV can't show you 4k. That'll save you some battery life.
Thanks guys. I plan on getting another battery I can use to swap into it. They have some that will double/triple battery life. Should have no problem making it through all day hunts. Also, I believe if I record in 4k I can "trim" or crop the video to be 1080 quality. So essentially 4k gives you more zoom to 1080 quality.
No. 4k doesn't give you anything other than 4k. I do custom audio/video for a living. To use an analogy, trying to turn 4k into 1080 would be like trying to turn a Mathews into a Hoyt. It just doesn't work. You can stick Mathews stickers all over the Hoyt, but it's still a Mathews. The problem isn't with the camera, the problem is with the TV. It would be the equivalent of trying to watch HDTV on a standard Def TV. It just doesn't compute. If you have a 4k TV, then yes, it would be worth filming it in 4k. If you don't it's worthless.
Good idea. That will get you going. I just use my iPhone a lot for other stuff and wouldn't want it tied up as a camera. Look at the Looxcie.com cameras also.
