Anyone film themselves shooting?  Periodically I do.  It is a tremendous aid and I would recommend the practice to anyone who has yet to achieve perfection in their shooting.

+1.  It is particularly useful to discover creeping, head movement, and alignment issues.  In other words, things one has done wrong for so long that they feel right.

Technology....the knack of arranging the world so that we don't have to experience it.

I had a golf pro who gave me a lot of lessons over the years. He never used a camera rather corrected things in my swing and they would feel a certain way to me after his corrections. By repetition muscle memory would take over and guide me.

However if you don't have the benefit of a coach standing there and correcting your each and every fault I would say a camera would be the second best help.

I could never correct my own swing by looking at videos or picture though.

Lets just say I have plenty of blatant corrections.

I film myself frequently to examine my release and form. I find it really helps reinforce good form habits.

I film myself all the time now  that I have an iPhone it's very helpful and I've corrected a few mistakes because of it. Everyone should do it
