Here's a short video of how I installed my GoPro Hero2 on my pellet rifle scope so I can use it as a gun camera.

Very professional, I am impressed. I did notice that you have to be careful not to put the sun directly behind you. Tom

Nice idea. With that set up you could also get one of the CenterPoint ActionCam HD cameras when they come out and put that on our scope too facing your target and that would film the forward view and your GoPro would film the backward view.

I plan on getting the ActionCam HD when it comes out to mount on my scope for filming since it is very small. Hopefully it won't cost more than around $150 to $175 when it comes out.

Anyway, nice video and I look forward to watching Friday's hunt.

Let me know how it works out for you.

No problem Wingman . I'll do a video of it once I get one. I don't think they are going to be out until August 2012 though.

The standard CenterPoint ActionCam is supposed to be out the end of this month or the beginning of July. It is going to run $125, but only has standard and 2x zoom. Here's a photo of the standard one below:

The ActionCam HD is a little longer an is supposed to zoom from 2.5x to 5x. Here's a photo of the HD version:

I will be checking them out. I want to look at what frame rate it films in and what sort of light or low level light it will go. Thanks for the 411.
