Need Assistance Goggles for Camera
Hi Everyone,
Please see pictures below. This is called a Fig Rig (well this is 1/2 a fig rig) and it is used to stabilize the attached HD Camera and reduce the camera shake.
Here is the problem, that Camera is my new Toy...and I dont want it to be destroyed when filming. While it doesnt look like much of a camera...its pretty damn good.
The two rods sticking out in front of the camera have 2 slots. I have already slotted in a piece on industrial strength Plexiglass in those two slots to try and protect the camera.
But when I tested the Plexiglass, it took the first 3 hits and then cracked.
I have looked a goggle lenses from paintball masks, but the lenses are curved and distort the image.
Where can I find a flat piece of see through plastic that can withstand 300 FPS.
Please note. Im trying to make this something that anyone can do and as you can imagine would have a lot of bennifit to paintball photographers and videographers. Yes, I do own a number of GoPros but they are stuck in wide angle and dont have a zoom...which really sucks for filming paintball.
Any thoughts or assistance would be appreciated.
