I have been toying {NO pun intended} with the idea of putting a small keychain-type video camera into a rocket nose cone to record ejection & recovery deployment. I have a couple of "experimental projects" relating to ejection and recovery that I want to try, and I figure carrying a small vid cam that way would be the BEST WAY to record it.
APOGEE COMPONETS sells one of those cameras. I was all set to order one from them...UNTIL...I downloaded the camera's instructions {.pdf file} and discovered that the minimum in-focus distance from the camera lens in about 20 inches or about 50 centimeters.
Does anyone know of any small vid cams that do not have this limitation? Audio is optional, I mainly want to record video.
Thanks in advance....
