my concern would be about the camera and lens be water proof and sprey getting onto the lens. Also weight may be an issue so I went for a four thirds setup with panasonic. Of it also depends on your budget .also consider if the camera has a time limit for videos

just a quick note. I managed to get a wireless remote shutter trigger from China for the panasonic G9 camera. It is the Pixel Oppillas/L1 for Panasonic. The camera requires a 2.5mm cable 3pole on one end and a 4 pole on the other. found on Amazon web site

Most when I was looking had dust in them so bought new instead

Oh well that is your opinion, having been customer facing over nearly 50 years I know different. Including owning my own business for 25 years

Why not just use a camera to take photos with?????

I put a map of the world on the wall this evening. I then gave Sue a dart and said whatever country you hit with the dart I will pay for a two week holiday in that country. Sue threw the dart. Looks as if those two weeks will be behind the fridge.

Well the panasonic 100-300mm lens just arrived very late this afternooon. No real chance to try it out. Did manage to get a shot at one of our apple tree buds in breeze. need to have more practise under better conditions

My choice when looking for an office chair would be to start at the bottom:banana::headbang:

I would normally use an Adobe premier elements . With that you can cut and delete a video section quite easily . Example when this guy hit our car when my wife was driving. this was submitted to insurers and accepted without question . so I just cut and deleted all the video before and after...
