Hi All,
I would like to try aerial photography with my GWS Slow Stick, and would like a recommendation for an inexpensive digital camera. I don't mind buying used on e-bay, but I would like at least 2.0 MP and hopefully less than $100 USD. Of course, it needs to be small and lightweight.
Thanks for your input.
Regards,
Jay B. aka Treker in Minnesota

Not sure if it's still available, but some months ago I found a Samsung Digimax 300, which is a 3.2 MP digital camera for slightly over $100 US. The reason I bought this particular one was, to take video from my Telemaster. With a 256 MP memory card, I got about 18 minutes of video, but the resolution was rather low. However, I later found that by using a servo to trip the shutter for still shots, it got some rather good resolution pics. Now, at highest resolution, it takes almost 10 seconds between shots - can't have everything we might prefer. Especially at a bargain price.

I saw several small cams under 100 at Target. I think some had 2m pixels.
I have hauled up a 1 3/4 lb Hi8 vid cam on my 7' old timer New Ruler. Just be sure your shooting at infinity, otherwise it will be searching focus.
