Hi all,
I won't be at JC, but I wish you all good times and smooth air!
As the airstrip database nazi, I encourage you to take plenty of photos and videos (approach/departure/ground exploration) of the airstrips you visit for posting to shortfield.
Video Tips-
1. Mounting: I've had pretty good luck shooting video by mounting the camera to the dash or to a fuse bar. Even an inexpensive digital still camera (that takes video) mounted to the dash with stick-on velcro or duct tape can work well. Press the record button in the pattern and forget about it until you're on the ground.
2. Focus: If you can, put it on manual focus and set to infinite focus to prevent it from focusing on the windscreen.
3. Vibration: some hard drive cameras get upset by the vibration. If your camera has the option, record to a solid state memory stick/card.
4. Smashed bugs: clean the windscreen.
