[QUOTE="Shawn Carlock, post: 195822, member: 4"] Grit, We used a JVC version with 32x optical zoom. It worked well for most things but there are several issues I would have liked to had different. I am upgrading cameras before we start filming "Greatest Hits" vol 1, this spring. On the velocity changes, I test for temperature sensitivity when I am dialing a rifle in. I like to test when it is cold. If I can shoot when it is 20-30 degrees over the chrongraph and get a velocity average and spread, then I'll warm som ammo up to 90-100 degrees and run it through to see the difference. This is one of the big reasons I have been so wedded to H1000 in the 338 Edge. I get less than 30 fps difference from the temp extreames. Well worth dropping 50-60 fps to get that kind of performance. If I had to use a more sensitive powder for some reason I would simply go to Exbal and save a couple of charts for 0, 20, 40, & 60 degrees for hunting season, then pull up or unfold what ever one I needed.
