Extra Credit XI “Videography, Part I”

Extra Credit is video series that examines topics related to history in the Thunder Bay District and exploring that history.

This episode is all about videography, which I’ve been involved with since the mid 90s when we were still using things like 8mm tapes. I explain some of my background with regard to the cameras I used to record my explorations and how that has evolved over time. I then go into detail about what I currently use on my hikes and their key features and limitations.

Enjoy!
