It looks like someone took a dump in their hand and wiped it all over my screen.


Actually looks like decent quality. How much was the camera and what type is it?

Why,it's a Go Pro Hero Wide. I'm not sure I like the wide angle aspect of it... My biggest problem right now is that Picassa won't load a video to YouTube over 100mb so that sucks but I'm working out the bugs. I want to have it down to a science for the rally!

I did a test video with my Hero on Youtube too. I plan on doing more videos soon, a la vlogging, but for now all I have is a couple crappy vids,

Tig looks awesome... but there was one bad glitch I noticed... it was playing some really shitty music

maybe you were blinded by the deal and actually got the tone deaf version...




I've been thinking about one of these for a little bit... where did you have yours mounted?

I hear they don't like to be up and in the wind or you get LOTS of wind noise

Tig, use vimeo instead of youtube. I am going to add that as an option to embed video's here.

I believe that this was shot with the same camera. It was definitely a "Hero" unit. The quality is down somewhat because it was shot through the windscreen.
