I took a stab at filming a hunt last year for the first time. I set up my phone on my spotter with a phone skope and set it to record while I took the shot. It was cool to get to see the bullet impact and the animal go down. I went antelope hunting yesterday with some friends and didn't think about filming anything. I've wanted to go back and watch the video of the hunt several times and then remembered there is no video. I decided that videoing the hunt is a way for me to get a lot more enjoyment out of the hunt. I love telling stories and being able to show the video is really cool.
Here's what I need help with. I am not a photographer. I own a Nikon DSLR but no telephoto lenses. I am thinking, for what I want to do, buying a new camera that has a huge zoom range like the Nikon COOLPIX p1000 might be the way to go.
Those of you who film your hunts, how do you get it done? What equipment do you use and why?
