It was a bright and sunny Sunday. Too bright actually! Even polarizer filter could not kill strong contrasts between shaded and bright areas.
We tried my little $5 camera mount for the pocket sized digital photo camera. It works!

Be kind to me! It was my first editing attempt!
Once I get my hands on Canon Vixia HF10, I will make even better camera mount that will be able to rotate 360* and adjust up and down from inside the car! That will be full high definition treat with some sick camera angles.

Sorry for not posting pics directly, but Image shack is kicking me out for the last 2 hours. I restrained for adding more Tool's Fit pics. He has more on his picture thread.

We though that we were the main attraction until that classic Ford race care drove by! That would be the only Ford I would be delighted to have! Don't ask - previous horror experience with my parents Ford!

Enjoy!

hahaha awesome! that music was so inspirational! how did you get the camera outside of your car? someone holding it or do you have some crazy video mount on the outside of your car.

Tyler

 

haha dude that is ingenious! i had a suction cup gas tank mount for my motorcycle a few years ago but i never thought of using one on the outside of a car! pretty awesome. good stuff dude

 

My computer had trouble installing the video program, but good work. Nice video (what I could see of it), good music, too short in length ( due to download problem. Thanks Ivan and Tyler.

 

I cant watch the full thing either...

Ivan can you throw it on youtube real quik? It takes like ten mins to download and its super easy!

Tyler

great vid, the stabilization on that camera is damn good. what camera did you use?

 

Imageshack is finally working!



Canon SD630 - no image stabilization at all! It is not a video camera.

 

The vid still uploading?
I cant wait to see it!! Im anxious!

Tyler

 

That classic Ford was just icing on a really good cake. Great shoot guys!

So because of all the comp probs I have had as of late, trying to get that vid to work just isnt gunna happen. I know youtube is not that great but it gets the job done. Ahhhh but now I see...you are going to do that google vid thingy....

 

Snap Fit, you are right, goggle video is crap, too. It dropped quality big time!
