Default Simple Sniper Kit

Anyone buy and use this kit off of the snapshot sniper site. You just add the camera after you put together.

I won't purchase from WTS. Very hard people to get to answer an email or phone call. Gary@Snapshotsniper will return every call!

I used the sniper board on my last build but I have never used the entire kit. I think those kits on snapshot actually are sold through Whitetail supply, whom I've heard negative things about. Yeticam also sells complete kits. Just curious, why do you want to buy the kit, the parts are cheaper if ordered separately. Also, what kind of camera are you going to use?

It isn`t all that hard. I just started my first build and it`s easier than I expected. The hard part is just deciding to do it. Taking apart a perfectly good camera isn`t natural.

Here are 2 videos on how to do a P32 hack.

Here`s a PDF file that tells what to do and has pictures. It`s for a P32, also.

There are a bunch of cameras to use, but, most would say that the Sony P32 is, probably, the easiest.

Believe me, I don't have alot of electrical skills either but you can do this. When you decide what direction you are going for sure, let me know and maybe I can help you. If I don't know how to do something, I know others who will help. Good luck!

Its intimidating at first, but it really is not that hard. For my first build, I ordered the kit from Yeti. Very easy to do, just like building a model. But the kits really are more expensive. You could just look at the kits, write down all the parts that are in the kit, an then buy them seperate. I just finished my second build, and I ordered everything seperate. the hard part is, you might end up ordering from a couple different places. Just let us know if you need any help.
