Awesome use of the 300D

Go to last post
It is a nice place to wander about and take photographs....

I hope to learn much about photography and the Canon as well as this area provides almost daily breathtaking visages.

The folks who run the helicopter photography service are very nice and into living life and playing with toys :)

As you can see, they also take some awesome photographs.

Regards, Chris.

Yes, it's wired into the little mini jack on the 300D as a remote trigger.

I wonder if he has to fly back and forth to get the AI Servo to kick in?
 
Hello James,

I met Jeff briefly a while ago and we shared some laughs.

I grew up skiing/racing/coaching at the big. Went out into the real world, came back :)

I now live at the other end of the valley, teach & coach at 'the other hill' on weekends.

Did lots of photography as a lad, forgotten all of it, having a lot of fun re-learning with this new toy.

Check the fire photos & you may be able guess which burg.

Regards, Chris.

a helicopter?

I don't even like picking my camera up off the table in case I drop it.

I'm thinking I might just get a nice glass case to mount it in.....saves using it, wouldn't want to reak it.

lol
 
This is a switch that I use:
http://space.virgilio.it/[email protected]/prod02.htm
One end goes to my receiver and the other end is wired to a submini plug
that goes into the 300D.

To fire the shutter I just have to move a toggle switch on my transmitter.

Cheers,
Jeff
