It would, but at the same time it would look weird since I'm right handed. I'll try it another day just to experiment.

Nope. It comes with a bunch of adhesive mounting arms, so that's what I've been using as a "gun cam".

I use a Bullet Cam HD 5.0 on the shoulder mount, generally works well, need to build a mount that will handle "auto tilt" and minimize the ground shots
adding a second cam (gun mounted) would be nice too

hey guys, im reviving the thread to ask this question:
where did you buy your OPS-core mount for the contour camera?
thx!

You can get it directly from Contour or you can get this that comes with a rail and bb shield.

Oh to add to what I said earlier, there is one annoying thing about mounting on your head. For some strange reason, a lot of the video is tilted to one side. I think it's because we almost never look straight ahead especially when aiming down a gun. at first i thought it was just being noob and not doing it right but I confirmed everything was level when I did it and no matter how straight it is on your head, you will always tilt it. if you are crouched in the slightest, the shot will always be slightly tilted. Just giving a heads up. haha

The best way actually is have the Contour from either your left or right shoulder. That way you get a stable video that does not move alot that induces motion sickness.

I prefer gun mounted and use only the kill footages and edit out the transport and movement footages. People would more fun watching those.

how do you use the scope with the camera in the way, othewise thats some sweet footage

I would assume te gun is mounted to a side and the cross hairs were added in.

All the ones I have seen, the raw video footage is superimpose in a video editor with crosshairs.

ahh just cause by the look it was the actual croshairs even the long range shot was using aproximately the right line one the scope lol.

I've seen a few vids of a guy (sorry can't find it) that was hunting small game with a Crosman PCP marauder air rifle (this thing is sick). Basically he mounted some camera in front of the scope and used the LCD display as his aiming device, effectively recording the shots too

Unlimited eye-relief scoped bolt action, anyone?

Assuming the camera was zeros at a close range. The parallax error from even the max range of airsoft gun between the scopes would be minimal to Zero

that was what i was thinkin he did but i see the camera he was using doesnt have a display.
also it would be able to be an inexpensive night vision scope with the right camera.
now im tempted to get one of those contour had and rig it up behind the scope of the bolt action with an ir illuminator that may be pretty sweet

The gopro has an aftemarket LCD screen you can buy so you can watch real time what you are shooting, the problem I have is that the lens is offset from center so you wont be able to mount it looking straight down the optic you are using.

however there are some options: a similar setup to what this guy is using but using a contour with the handlebar mount (however you will be unable to use your scope)

Several other cameras come with a piciatny mount as well if that is all you are interested in such as the midland XTC

Secondly the idea that I have been considering is to mount a second optic on the side rail of the rifle, zero it in to be used specifically for the camera to look through while this would add a lot more front end weight to the gun (and probably look goofy with more than one optic mounted on your gun) would probably give a very nice "down the scope" view with one of the adapters from these guys:

Granted you would also probably need a picatiny riser as well to get it to line up properly and or get one and go to a machine shop to have them make you a custom modified piece to fit your needs. I would think it would also be more watchable if you used something like a reflex red dot to get the "down the scope" feel but still be able to have a diecent field of view.

When watching most airsoft videos with a single camera I fond that no matter where they have the camera positioned at some point usually in a firefight the camera is in a "bad spot" and you get a great view of the wall someone is hiding behind or a view of the ground as they are running. A frame in frame view would IMO resolve most of this issue buy having 3/4 of the frame the "head mounted cam" and one of the bottom 1/4s the "down the scope" gun cam wich can be reversed as required, whichever is giving the best angle/point of view.

As a side note having mutiple people filming and editing to flip back and forth with a label of who's camera you are following is also gives a really nice effect and really helps to show the action.
