...to record solves?

I'm interested in getting a camera for recording solves only so would appreciate if you guys could tell me what you use and what you think about it. Price would help too. Thanks.

For a long time I just put my phone on a music stand above where I was sitting. It worked great and I still go back to it since it is more out of the way compared to a tripod.

The camera I use is a Kodak Easyshare touch.
I also used my iPhone 4s in the past.

I alternate between my Rebel T3i and my Galaxy S6 though I don't record that often.

I saw a couple of people using SJCAMs recently. They review quite well and are affordable. Are they decent?

Gopro, works great for angles if you get a gooseneck, and a head strap.

Gopro, works well.

I use a dslr, love the quality, but the downfall is the time restriction. I have to make sure and restart it every 20 minutes.

I use a DSLR as well. Nikon d750. Agreed with Damian. The timer restriction absolutely sucks.

Chris I absolutely love your solve videos (table cam). I recently got a d3300 with a 18-270mm lens, and am hoping to film my next solves Chris-style.

A few things,

i) What timer restriction?
ii) What setup do you use? Is it a tripod, or do just plonk it straight on the table.
iii) Comps in my area have a giant window behind solves, with constantly changing lighting. Would you recommend just putting it on full auto, and auto focus also?

I see many people at comps filming with a phone / tablet using the front camera. Isn't this technically cheating?

yeah, according to regs, it is not allowed, if you see anyone at comps doing this, notify your delegate at the comp.


and to answwer the question on the thread, i use a gopro hero. i got it as my birthday present. i have a stackmat pro and mat at home so i test out with that to see where to exactly place the camera. it works well for me.
