I have a couple of fantastic working and deer stalking dogs I’d love to get some action footage from. Has anyone here used a go pro or similar mounted on a dog and can recommend what type or brand? I have heard the go pro harnesses are useless on active dogs so don’t want to spend big $ for nothing
Video quality, 1080P, 2K, 4K? Frame 24fps, 60? Battery size? Your budget?Quote:

I would try one of the <30 dollars ones off Trade Me first.
If the idea is crap then at least you wont have broken the bank , and if it gets lost you wont cry too much.
Talk to Luke from NZ Hunter magazine.
He runs them. Apparently he doesn't have as many as he started with.
Had saddle bags for the dog and used a GoPro mount with two Velcro straps for this footage from an old GoPro Hero 2
