    Does the camera have a place on the bottom for it to screw on to the tripod mount or did you have to do some modifications to the camera? I am very impressed with the quality of the video and would like to get something like that to record the action. How long does the battery last while taking video?

    Pretty cool camera. I'll have to take a look.

    One suggestion, can to tilt the mount on your stabilizer? It seems like when you are at draw the "target" or centershot was at the bottom of the screen. When you shot the jump brought the camera of target and out of view. Maybe an adjustment to make the target the center of the view would keep it on frame when the bow jumps.

    Cool camera, thanks for the video.[8D]

    Most all cameras have a place to mount on the bottom even your still shot cams. I'm not sure if they make any that dont have a threaded mounting hole.
    I may be selling my GL2 if anyone is interested, I've been wanting to upgrade to the XHA1S. Gonna wait til I have the XHA1S in my hands first tho. cant hunt without a cam [:D]

    Very cool buckey! your liner has some wrinkles tho. [:D]
