Video record our trails

I want to record our beautiful trails, with GPS map, photos and videos.
For this purpose, I did some preparation. For example, I bought sports video cam, Garmin VIRB, and tried several mounting/holding methods. At end, I found the best way is to mount the camera on top of trekker pole and turn on the stabilizer. The trekker pole can be used as  Monopod (single leg tripod), and when holding in hand and let the leg hang below, it can stabilize the camera. It's pretty good to record walking; ok with running.
我想要將灣區常跑的trail記錄下來, 用GPS map, photos 都很常見,我還想增加Video。為了這個目的,我買了 Garmin VIRB,還試驗了不少持攝影機的方法。有肩帶,頭帶,但都不理想,最後發現裝置在申伸縮登山杖頂端還不錯。

Costco的 trekker pole, 加工將Camera裝在杖頂


Despite smile on my face; shoulder mount doesn't work well


Use it as monopod and shoot video rotate. 杖拉長,定點著地拍攝













 

  Walking with camera cane, stabilizer on. 用走的

















  Running with camera cane, stabilizer on.  用跑的




  But in general, if we want to record the trail, we must do many stop/slow walk and recording.
