[QUOTE="thaHooligan, post: 3410171, member: 14892"] I self film when I am the one hunting and I video my 2 sons when they hunt during rifle season. Self filming is definitely a challenge. You want to get good clear video with the game in frame, good audio, and a second camera showing you taking the shot if possible. It's taken me a while to get decent at it, but I'm definitely not an expert. I use a Panasonic Lumix FZ300 with a Rode VideoMicro mic. It's a picture camera, but it records good video and best of all it has a 25-600mm lens so it will zoom in quite a bit for the longer shots. I also use a gopro 3+ silver for rear facing shots. I will either mount it on my tripod facing back towards me or I will mount it on my bow or rifle facing me with a gopro sportsman mount. I had a fairly cheap JVC camcorder that I used several years ago before I got the Lumix and it worked pretty good for closer/in the woods type videos, but it didn't do to well in low light. I recently bought a Canon Vixia HF G20 video camera that I plan to try out this season and its supposed to be pretty good in those low light conditions.
