    Definition Of Full Dig Video?

    To me, a full dig video should include the beeps, and then the dig. Martin

    Me agree! It especially helps in analyzing the pinpointing process.

    In my opinion a complete full dig would be scanning and getting a target, pinpointing it, digging it up,showing the item, and showing the hole covered back up.

    Wouldn't leave a whole lot of time left to detect if every detail was documented.
    Most times I don't even stop to take a still photo. lol But I do bring my camera along in case I find a big ol' gold coin.
    I do appreciate all the time people spend shooting video, processing it and uploading it for all of us to enjoy. thumbsup01

    Well the way I've at least I thought a full dig is the act of digging the target. If the filmer decides to show signals and VDIs and pin pointing that would be an extra lol I just did a video and I called it

    I think a full dig could be expanded to include everything from the beep forward, but it doesn't have to. A full dig should at least have the ground-breaking onward.

    Yes, it takes a LOT of time to setup and record from the beep, or even from the dig, but it gives a full experience and lets the viewer feel that anticipation build.

    With some of the new camcorders that you can mount almost anywhere( on your head, on your detector, chest mount) you can video full digs without even handling the camera except to turn it on and off.
