Default First Ride Recorded in HD (Limited Time Only)

Just a quick vid I made to test a new HD camera. The ride itself is boring so I sped it up for you but after a lot of trial and error, I was testing camera position, camera stability, lighting, editing skills, etc.. I didn't notice the hosting site has a strict policy on not having ANY content from anywhere else on the web and must be your own stuff only until after I made the vid, and I had included a few seconds of stuff just to test editing so I'm sure they'll be taking it down quickly (and it took forever to create this one and I didn't have time to edit out the other content) so look at it now before they take it down if you have a chance and let me know what you think.

One weird thing I noticed is that the higher the quality of the recording, the slower it looks like you're actually riding. For example in parts where I'm riding 60 mph, on the vid it looks like I'm going 10 mph.

Next vid I'll try and capture a more exciting twisty mountain ride (or HD bewbage ), this one was just a quick test for the set up.

Ignore the cheesy stuff, I was just farting around to see what I can do with the program

If you have a high speed connection make sure to click "HD" is set to "ON" on right side of the vid to ensure you watch it in its proper HD format (main reason for the vid in the first place).


Get it on already

You know you're not the only one with a HD camera. Your just the only one with a HD camera and mount.

Well I planned on using the full blown Final Cut Pro that I bought and never used but I opened it up and within 3 minutes I knew I was in WAAAAAY over my head lol so I ended up doing the edits in iMovie.
