Larry Baskett's InitiaCam
Larry converted this AeroTech Initiator to carry a
Vivitar Opus 35 compact camera, modified for external electronic control.
The rocket flies well and the camera operates correctly, although the
small lens and correspondingly slow maximum shutter speed have
caused occasional problems with blurring, both under thrust and during
descent. Larry has been working toward a better understanding of the
conditions under which a small cheap camera does/doesn't give satisfactory
photos from a rocket.
