Working on it!
Since it is in HD, it takes a lot of memory and I will have to hack it up to pieces to get it under 500mb limit for posting on Vimeo!
Stay tuned!

 

dayummm, HD ftw

 

Cant wait for the vid.
I will get to see what my car looks like bouncing down the road lol.

 

haha you werent that bouncy.

 

I already know these arent the best pics, my "real" camera's batteries were dead soo this was shot with my p&s. And a p&s in low lighting isnt the best....
















And what everyone wants to see

 

Nice pics man thanks for getting them up. I totally forgot about pics completly

 

OK, guys it was a pain in the you know what to get it done.
I used SDHC card in the camera for the first time and I could not transfer it to any of my PC's. I tried software updates, drivers, patches. Turns out me upgrading everything except card readers does not help. A friend of mine offered his brand new PC and I practically moved in since! Once files were transfered I tried to edit on my pc and I crashed it few times. Not enough processor speed and 4GB of memory is not enough! I crashed my friends pc too, but somehow got it through tonight on a third attempt! Each time we managed to get through editing, pc crashed couple of hours into conversion. Frustrating!

Video is already uploaded to Vimeo, but it is converting as we speak. Once it is done link below will work!

Honda Fit - Skyline cruise on Vimeo

I am not happy with the quality. This was the first time camera was NOT mounted on the hood and glare and dashboard texture screwed things up. There is no way to turn off auto focus on the camera so every time camera tried to focus on reflection on the glass.

We need to re-take! Any volunteers?

I am going to sleep! I won't be able to wake up tomorrow!

 

my homies got pulled over and got ticketed for speeding tonight. right by saratoga on 9 :O

beware!

 

Ivan, I don't mind tagging along . Assuming I'm not in class

 

Hey...I have a camera that doesn't always autofocus =P I think it takes it in HD not too sure. I have not played around with it to make it HD.

I'll show it next time

 

Sick Ivan! Thanks for going though all that hell to get the video up!
I enjoyed!

On a side note, you dont happen to have the clip of my car on the freeway do ya? I would love to see what that looks like haha. No need to edit or anything, just raw clip is fine. No rush either.

 

Sounds good Jimmy!

Thant sounds good too, but are you willing to risk it attached to the outside of the car? My HD camera is Walmart special currently at $170!

Tyler, I got couple of clips, but I am maxed out for uploads on Vimeo until Sunday when they reset it. I actually exceeded it with our video. File was 500mb 256kb which was 256kb over the limit. I was sweating bullets it would reject the upload at the very end! I even cliped more of the video and prepared a fourth version of the file just in case.

 

nice video ivan. i enjoyed it. cant wait to go on another drive!

oh and i was listening to techno too

chemical bros is good driving music for me.

 

I was listening to metal
Although when i drive hard music goes low. I need to hear whats going on lol.

 

this is like my favorite techno song right now
YouTube - Attack Attack! - Interlude
even if it is just an interlude

i'll watch the video right now though

 

do you like aphex twin?

YouTube - aphex twin - come to daddy

or the chemical bros?

(i love driving to this song)
YouTube - The Chemical Brothers - Midnight Madness - Official Video

 

no i've never heard either of them,
but i really like the chemical brothers!
good stuff

the video is amazing!
i wish we had canyons in texas

 

I had my camera for $225 valued at $449 when new so No, but you can mount it on my GE dash...you can fit a beach resort in there!

Plus the camera comes with anti shake feature. I will try to find some old videos that I made during my road trips to see the difference/sample.

I remember some really nice roads in Austin. One in particular i just cant think of the name right now.

 

yeah we have some nice roads, like lime creek road and stuff, but nothing like a canyon.
i like how it goes up, then down, and all that stuff
