Skate Lines With VX 1000	Can't Post

I was just wondering if anybody had any tips on how to get the whole subject in the shot while shooting a skateboard line with the VX 1000 and a .3 fisheye? Because I'm used to using an LCD screen

what are you talking about, if you are using a .3 all you have to do is follow the skater and have the camera in the general direction.

kinda get a feel for the shot not moving first like the distance from whoever your shooting, tilt the camera back about 30 degrees
make a few trial passes watch them back

If you need advice on this, why have you got a vx1000 with a point 3 fish, surely you should have learned how to do this using a your old hi 8 with 0.42 fish back in the day??!???
