Hi

Yes the Go pro is a fantastic camera but unfortunately bit out my price range at present, i would love one of those he has a very good buy there. I wanted to give the channel a try to see how I get on first, In future will probably upgrade as my current camera was only £18 but its working well, it has no macro as you can see but its got me up and running.

Still getting my head around filming whilst detecting, its not as easy as you would think, I Have a go pro chest harness which I have modified to take any camera with a tripod fitting to try and keep it steady.

Glad people are enjoying the vids, its not all sovereigns when you hit the beach as you can see in them but I am enjoying making them and learning about compiling them every time i shoot one.

Going to try some more beaches as I go so keep watching.

Regards

Mark

It just goes to show, the old machines still find things

Hi

Very true, the TR770D was finding coins at 5 - 6" depth and you cant argue with that considering the age of the machine.
