This miniature color camera also known as the
HuntCam™ is designed to attach to the bill of any hat and allows for hands
free video taping with most camcorders. It
simply plugs into your camcorder (
see
this link for compatible camcorders and will record while your
hands are now free to grab your bow, rifle, fishing rod or simply allow you to
walk and have full visional use of your eye sight. The View-Cam is
extremely light and provides quality video taping of everything you see, even in
low light conditions. The View-Cam automatically switches from normal mode to
low light mode and extends your filming time in low light conditions. Our
goal is to provide a product that works with most camcorders on the market
today, while providing unique design effects of the camera so that it blends
into the environment and is simple to operate. No longer will you have to fumble
with the camcorder when that trophy animal approaches your stand site. No longer
will you have to tell your friends about the one that got away. You will have
caught the action on video, to be re-lived time and time again with friends and
family. Make your own hunting and fishing videos, taping your entire adventure
while continuing with your activity, hands free of having to hold the
camcorder. Simply store your camcorder in your camouflaged backpack or fanny
pack and continue to video every moment of your adventure!
Frequently Asked Questions
|
How does the HuntCam work?
The HuntCam is a black, waterproof, miniature color video camera that
slides onto the bill of your hat for a secure fit, and records onto your camcorder.
It utilizes the A/V cable that comes with most of the popular camcorders.
This cable is designed to allow the camcorder to plug directly into your
television set for playback purposes or recording purposes. The HuntCam uses
this A/V cable to record the video. If your are unsure if your existing camcorder
allows for this feature, please check the operation instructions of your camcorder
for Video Input capability. If you have the ability to video tape directly from
your television onto your camcorder, then your camcorder will be compatible. You
may also contact us at
sales@bossbuck.com and send the make, model
and year purchased of your camcorder and we will be happy to look into whether your
camcorder will work. Our experience has been that this feature is found on many of
the popular brands of camcorders and that the majority of the Sony, Panasonic or
Cannon models offer this feature. We are also happy to recommend camcorders if you are
looking to purchase a new one that may be used in conjunction with the HuntCam in
addition to normal purposes.
How is the HuntCam different from the hunting camcorder mounts and other hat/bow mounted cameras?
The HuntCam is professionally designed and manufactured with high quality components.
Unlike cheap imitations, the HuntCam's patent pending camouflaged and weatherproof
housing is designed to protect the HuntCam from the rugged use that sportsmen have
come to expect out of their hunting accessories. The HuntCam is ALWAYS filming exactly
what you see. This means that you do not have to worry about reaching for the camcorder
mount handle to swing your camcorder into position. Better yet, the HuntCam is mobile,
allowing you to continue filming at all times, hands free of holding your camcorder.
Additionally, there is no fumbling around in the dark trying to get it setup.
You simply slide it onto the bill of your hat and you are ready to start catching
the action. Lastly, the HuntCam is waterproof, where most other similar cameras
are not. By keeping your camcorder dry in a backpack or fanny pack, you can continue
to video your outdoor adventures with the HuntCam in wet weather conditions.
How do you connect your camcorder to the HuntCam?
Simply connect the RCA plugs attached to the cable on the HuntCam to the RCA plugs
on the A/V cable that comes with your camcorder. Use the VCR or VTR feature for
recording. See also this
link for more information about this topic.

How do you attach the HuntCam to your hat?
The HuntCam comes with a camouflaged sleeve and hat clasp that slides onto the
bill of the hat. This secures the HuntCam to your hat so that it will not fall
off, even while you are walking or looking down. The custom designed camouflaged
sleeve secures the camera as well, holding it firmly into position. You can simply
pull the HuntCam loose from your hat at anytime with a firm tug on the hat attachment.
This allows you to use the camera on virtually any baseball style camouflage hat, as
well as other hats that have a bill. The HuntCam can also be attached to your bow or
gun using the available attachments.
Can I use the HuntCam in any weather conditions?
The HuntCam is waterproof, so it can withstand rain or snow conditions.
Make sure that if you plan to spend a lot of time in wet weather conditions,
to put your camcorder in a weather resistant backpack or fanny pack as it would
be more susceptible to be affected by the weather than HuntCam. The HuntCam has
been field tested in wet weather conditions and it worked great.
How long will the HuntCam last?
The HuntCam is designed with high quality manufacturing and should give you many
years of service provided it is not abused. I would expect it to last as long
as most cameras or camcorders made today. Be sure to store your HuntCam in a
protected camcorder case during the off season to minimize any possible damage
to it.
What other activities are great for using the HuntCam?
The HuntCam is great for most any activity where you would like to record.
Other common uses include law enforcement, scouting, riding ATV or bike, fishing,
hiking, mountain climbing, paintball, sporting events (kid's baseball game),
vacations, and amusement parks. Please contact us if you have questions about
using the our products for other purposes.
