    Has anyone experience with recording cameras for shotgun.
    I was looking at the prices on one of the top brands and they seem expensive. Are there any alternatives that are still decent that you may have experience with?

    Thanks in advance.

    Yeah, tbh it's 3 time the price I paid for my Shotgun, (Yes, I know... I'm a cheap skate).

    I have seen other types that are ment for action cams (biking, watersports etc.), but they also have mounts for the shotgun.

    They don't seem to have that crosshair or start to record based on movement.
    So you would not have as much ability to see how far you missed by lol and would have to hit the record button for every shot, which would sometimes not be ideal, but starting prices of around 40 quid, I was thinking to give one a try.

    If you can do the job, do it. If you can't do the job, just teach it. If you really suck at it, just become a union executive or politician.

    Interesting setup them aimcams, but I have specs, so probably would be awkward to use or maybe I could use without the tints.

    Hi,
    I bought and have been using a Tachyon gun cam for the last two months. I paid about €270 but then was hit with €70 customs.
    I find out easy to use, good clear footage and easy to download to relive all my misses!
    Will I
