During my trip to Glenwood Canyon a month ago I spent a couple of hours
on the Colorado River playing with my Pentax Optio W10 in a video mode. I tried the camera mounted in different ways on a kayak deck with a suction cup (sticky pod) and as a helmet cam. I didn't add any music. All sounds including underwater were recorded directly by the camera. Here is a 3 minute movie assembled from those clips: http://www.fit2paddle.com/photokayak...146/index.html Please note that I am migating my "paddling and photography" blog to a new server and domain name - "paddling with a camera": http://photokayaker.fit2paddle.com Optio W10 is main camera for paddling and other outdoor activities.

Marek I picked up a W10 this summer, passing my original Optio WP to one of my daughters. The video quality is much better than the first camera's was. It's a nifty little camera that goes with us paddling, and just about everywhere else that I don't haul my digital SLR and lenses along. And thanks for showing details of your mounts; I like the suction cup mount. My efforts with various sorts of c-clamps have returned variable results. |

It's a nifty little camera that goes with us paddling, and just about everywhere else that I don't haul my digital SLR and lenses along. I've been mulling the possibility of adding a W10 to the big gear bag, to be able to avoid having to pass my current single camera back and forth from boat to boat. The only thing I don't like about little cameras is the lack of zoom. My interest in paddling photography has mainly to do with trying to capture the wildlife we see from the water, and a 3X zoom leaves a lot to be desired. Even the 10X zoom in the Canon S1IS in the lovely acrylic waterproof case that I've been using very often doesn't get me as close as I wish or need. The new S3IS has a 12X zoom, but for some reason Canon isn't making waterproof cases for the S2 and S3, so I can't even be tempted to upgrade. In any event, for my needs, a 3X zoom would be acceptable in a second camera. For what it's worth, all the pix on my kayaking pages (which I've been working on lately) from 2004 on, have been taken with the S1IS. http://web.newsguy.com/sphere/msoja/...ayak/kayak.php Mike Soja And thanks for showing details of your mounts; I like the suction cup mount.
