I would envisage wearing the camera on a chest or head mount.
Gopro metal detector.
In this video i metal detect underwater for lost valuables by a staircase at ginnie springs in florida.
Always great to get some fresh beach air.
I want to be able to record my metal detecting expeditions including digging the hole recovering the item and zooming into the detail.
I have finally mastered a gopro hat studio for metal detecting.
After looking at all the options for filming detecting i ve settled on a hat mounted gopro hero 4 black to power it for hours i use a gopro bacpac and a novobeam usb charger for professional sound i use a edutige lav mic with the gopro mic adapter and rode minifur wind shield.
Testing out the 15x12 coil at the beach good to be out.
