[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 53323, member: 3"] I've been trying to get some representative video from my hunting and for the life of me I can't find an adapter to allow me to mount my digital camera on my rifle(s). I've been filming from a tripod or screw-in tree type suport but I REALLY NEED a mounting system for the actual rifle. I've thoght that if I could find a mount to attach to the top of my various Badger ring sets I could make it work. I worry about about the forces of recoil and the weight of the little digital camera but figure there are systems for the SIMRAD that mount on top of the scope too. Any ideas, how about some of you machine operator types, S1, Marty, George... or Petander (I think you have a bit of stuff left from the tripod/dog duct tape and glue adventure). I believe it needs to be placed above the rifle, side mounted or underslung dosen't seem like a viable option. I'm willing to sacrifice a little stability/clarity during recoil for the flexibility of not having to deal with two independent devices. (I've even toyed with the option of building a "saddle" for the camera and mounting it behind the scope...I have some Kydex, a few nuts and bolts and the ever present and useful duct tape. Figured I'd have HUGE parallax problems though and didn't want to chance shooting the thing setup like that until I was further away from the East Coast of the U.S. "You'll put someone's eye out with that thing!" ) [/QUOTE]
