I just thought about this again. How would the camera guy get to the spots they need to be in? I guess hitch rides place to place with random people and snap shots of everything the whole time.

I'm not putting any body down or slamming any one's equipment, but if this person is trying to wheel, or trying to be a passenger, he or she is not as likely to get the best angles and capture the "moment". I have an HD video camera too, and it's great for taking family videos, or other not-so-far away home videos, but a real deal, professional set up is what it would take to do a professional job in my opinion...
If there were a group like this past weekend (14) jeeps, and we all pitched in 50-100 bucks, that would probably be enough to get someone interested in a gig as our movie maker!?!?!?!?!?!????

I personally am going to be looking at a go-pro myself soon... That vid Mixilpidilstick made was awesome! and that was a cool set up...

Cant wait to see more pics from everybody....
Thats where my buddy comes into play. Hes a videographer/photographer up in the burbs of chicago. I can show you guys some of his work. I mean.. if you want to pay someone to do it.. but I know it costs an arm and a leg.. just for a few hours of their time.. not including travel and expenses.

Hey everyone, my Dad and myself had yet another great time.



Here's all the photos that we took while out on the trails.

WOW!!! Great pics. Wish I had stayed longer. Anyone in the other group on Saturday get any good pics. I know we were in a hurry to get out of the woods late that night. But thought someone may have taken some.
