I purchased an inexpensive underwater sport camera for an upcoming trip to the Philippines, and now I need to hire a team of scientists to put it together.
First
order of business, I downloaded instructions from the interweb and read through
them a bit. Actually, the camera itself isn’t terribly complicated; it’s
standard stuff: charge the battery, format the SD card, set the electronic
options to your liking. I can manage that, provided somebody smart (read:
Desiree here) can help me if I get a brain cramp.
The
mounting accessories are the impossibly complicated part of this toy. There are
handfuls of weird parts with ears and knobs and shoes and clamps for mounting
the camera to handlebars, helmets, vehicles, clothing, and possibly a UFO if
you can catch one.
To
simplify, I may just hold the camera in my hand while it’s tethered to my
wrist. I’ve posted a photograph of the camera and its attendant accessories.
