Hello,
I used the gopro for some time and I loved the ability to get really close to the subject offered by mounting it on pole. I could get the gopro really close to a morey eel for example, but I would not do that with a camera I hold in my hands. Or I could just get those important 2/3 ft closer to skittish subjects such as sharks and such.
Now I am upgrating to a compact camera for stills and video. How to gain that extra 2/3 feet assuming you are shooting with ambient light? Is anybody ever mounted a compact camera on a pole? For video i don't see any problem, for pictures maybe in a timelapse mode?
Any experience?
Thanks!
