[quote=erice]lots of places you can mount if you are willing to do lots of edits
have mounted to the rotating mast just under the boom
mid-boom
main beam
and a helmet
go-pro wasn't available so got a pentax optio,
but now canon, olympus and fuji also make waterproof "sports" digicams
the big advantage of the gopro is the wide angle lens, but that also limits some possible viewing positions like the top of the mast looking down
personally i think lots of short edits and a clip that is under a song long is the only way to go
a 5min clip from the end of the spin pole with clicking water is a bit .......
so imho you need to go out and shoot about an hour of footage over a season from lots of positions and then trim your clips down to a few seconds of fresh action each
then use really easy editing software to stitch them all together
i tried and failed a couple of times to make anything with windows moviemaker
but imovie on a macbook was easy
after that it was possible to go back to moviemaker and make something ok but i miss the effects that come bundled with imovie
