Tachyon GunCam Launches New Video Camera for Clays & Hunting

7/19/2016

The favorite camera of the world’s top sport shooters now takes aim at Clays and Hunting. Shipping Now!

Tachyon GunCam® is glad to announce the new GunCam® for Clays & Hunting, propelling Tachyon into a new area of shooting sports.

Tachyon is known for making the popular GunCam® for pistol and 3-Gun competitions that is used by national and international champions of the USPSA, IDPA and IPSC. We have often been approached and contacted by shotgun enthusiasts who urged us to make a mount and camera for the shotgun market and especially for the clay-shooting sports of trap, skeet, sporting clays, and five stand.

To fulfill these wishes, we have worked with University of Maryland and NRA shotgun coach and champion shooter Anne Mauro to design a light, rugged, simple-to-operate, Full-HD 1080p GunCam® specifically for clay shooting and hunting. This new camera is made with the hardware, lens and software that are especially tuned for those sports.

The rugged metal mount for this camera has been designed to secure beneath the barrels of over & under and semiautomatic shotguns. Mounting accessories allow mounting to 12, 20, 28 Gauge Over & Under and Semiautomatic shotguns without modification of the gun and without danger of scratching. The lightness of both camera and mount will not affect the gun’s balance, and the position will be completely out of the shooter’s line of sight.

Included: Camera, Metal Mount, 110V Adapter, Charge/Upload USB Cable, Mounting Pads

"GunCam's field of target reference, excellent visual definition, and long recording time is an outstanding training tool that I use and highly recommend as a shotgun coach and competitor.
After practice and before a tournament, reviewing footage of properly executed shots helps greatly to reinforce a positive sight picture in one’s memory, thus leading to successful scores."

Crosshairs, superimposed in the center of the videos, will help you judge the quality of your aim when reviewing the day’s videos. Shooters will also have the option of flipping a switch for an increased zoom level, giving a tighter view of the target which will allow hunters with rifles to bring back video of targets up to 150 yards away.

Switchable Zoom brings you closer to distant targets. Here is a stop sign at 150 yards.

The GunCam® for Clays & Hunting can record on battery alone for over two hours, and when plugged into a portable power bank can record while charging. With an optional 64GB memory card you will then be able to record 8 hours of 1080p video. This is ideal for long days of hunting when you must not worry about turning on your camera in time for your shot.

Beware Stolen Tachyon Micros for sale

6/10/2016

A shipment of 1600 Tachyon Micro cameras was lost in 2011, but recently they have been appearing in markets such as Amazon and ebay or other auction sites. We have reported this repeatedly to Amazon, but to no avail. We are hoping that they will take action on this matter.

We feel that we need to warn customers not to buy these cameras, as they are long past support from our company and we seriously doubt that you will receive any support from the illegitimate seller. If you have purchased one of these, you should immediately return them for a refund and let the place where you bought them know the reason for your return.

We have been working with EMAN Security Inc., trying to raise capital to develop and market the product known as MagCam or TheMagCam. EMAN’s websites are: www.themagcam.com and emansecurity.us and emanventures.com.

After doing additional due diligence on EMAN Security Inc., its principal owner, Arthur Joseph Emanuele, III or A. J. Emanuele , the potential product, and its intellectual property, we find that it is in the interest of Tachyon Inc. to terminate the agreement. Tachyon Inc. shall not be responsible for anything concerning TheMagCam.

New Sport Shooting Software for GunCam

4/6/2016

Updated Software better control of your video recordings during matches.

We are now offering free software that allows you to switch easily between automatic stopping of your recordings, and manual stopping.

Automatic will shut off your recording after two minutes, making it perfect for short pistol stages in USPSA, IDPA, and IPSC matches. This eliminates the problem of forgetting to stop your recording on one stage, which not only wastes memory and drains your battery, but causes you to stop the camera when you think you are turning it on to record the next stage.

For longer recording sessions, such as 3Gun, or for every-day camera usage, you can set the camera to Manual shuttoff. This will allow you to record as long as you like and then shut off by yourself.
You can change your modes at the 1080p – 720p switch on the back of your camera.

The 1080p position will give you Automatic, and the 720p position will give you Manual. But please note that both modes will record in Full-HD 1080p.

If you would like this software, please write to us at support@tachyoninc.com and we will send you the free update, along with installation instructions. Subject “GunCam Software Update”.

Happy Shooting!

Ricardo López Tugendhat ~ 3-Time IPSC World Champion (Revolver)

1/19/2016

Ecuadorian Ricardo López Tugendhat, three-time revolver world champion, has had to overcome a massive disadvantage in his shooting career compared to most international competitors. Ecuador is a small country where it is difficult to find a sponsor, and it is not a country where you can just go out and buy all the guns and ammo that you need. If you even want to practice at home, you must first make your own bullets and loads.
Yet even with these drawbacks Ricardo has still managed to claim his many championships with his favorite guns, especially the revolver. He has been crowned the 2008, 2011, and 2014 IPSC World Champion (Revolver Division).

These days, Ricardo dominates world revolver shooting. You need to go back over 10 years to the time when Ricardo came second behind the legendary Jerry Miculek at the 2005 IPSC World Shoot.
In this video you can see him show off his skill with various guns in different tournaments. In these clips, taken with his cap-mounted Tachyon GunCam, you can see Ricardo with the CZ Shadow 9mm, the STI .40 S&W, the S&W 625 45ACP, and the S&W 929 9mm.
If you are interested in contacting Ricardo, for sponsorship or any other reason, you may do so at this address: rickyrevolver@yahoo.com.mx
