Before I got hold of a GoPro or Contour miniature camera, I was ecstatic about the small(er) size of the 7D for remote mounting compared to the much larger Sony EX1 video camera.
Below is the video with the 7D.
Plus, bouncing a $1,700 7D off the ground was better than a $6,500 EX1 or at least that’s how I rationalized it.
Along come the $299 GoPro and Contour miniature cameras. Cannon fodder. Bounce away I say.
Below is the LA Times video that colleague Don Kelsen and I shot.
