Default TOC & best video camera

I agree 100% with Sean!!!

After flying RC planes for over 30 years, a friend talked me into going to the 2000 TOC with him. This was my first time at a TOC, but I felt that I had a pretty good idea of what to expect because I'd kept up with all the magazine coverage since the TOC started.

WOW was I wrong!!! I was absolutely blown away by the flying skills these guys have!

Sean got it right. Don't cheat yourself out of enjoying the TOC experience by spending your time behind a viewfinder. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy watching the entire TOC experience. Then buy one of the commercially produced tapes to let you relive the memories of being there. The commercial photographers get the best locations and views anyway.

Then as you're watching the TOC video, it will quickly become obvious that's it's simply impossible to accurately capture the TOC experience on video.....much less through a viewfinder.
