6 NOVEMBER 64
Rain squalls in the A.M. and
a general lack of birds through-
the day resulted in no footage
taken.
Due to the constant rolling
of the ship the shot shoulder
harness was fitted and may
be of great use for rough
weather. The speed of 48 FPS
may sufficiently slow the
hand-held movements to
make them less noticeable
on the screen. (Not true! J.P.)
Using the hand-held feature ires one easily & quickly
due to the weight and
bulkiness of the equipment.
A model running speeds even
faster than 50 FPS would be
useful in these respects!
