    Some more video silliness

    Had more fun today on my icy parking lot. I'm enjoying the new Hero Go-Pro HD camera. Sound's still fuzzy, though...

    Yea, the song's old and bad, but I couldn't resist!

    It looked like you had a blast. I would be nervous I would hit something in the snow. Do you have snow tires mounted?

    My first GoPro video. Camera is mounted on passenger side front window upside down. Editing made it right-side up.

    The only place to pass was turns 5-9.

    THere is a function setting in the camera to invert the video, so you don't have to fix it during editing.

    Yes, I'm running the Pirelli Sotozeros.

    Only thing to worry about in the parking lot is the dumpster and the air conditioning unit.

    Here's a little clip from outside the car. Got this done this morning before the above clip.

    This one was taken from the side of the car, camera stuck to the little window behind the main window. - pretty cool view. You can hear the waste gates blowing off - or as my daughter and I say, hear the seals barking.

    Some of the killer shots done by other forum members have inspired me to try some different mounting locations. I tried inside the engine bay, but it's terribly noisy. This camera's going to get a bunch of use when I spend the month of Feb in Phoenix. Expect a lot of off road footage.

    The camera I had was an early HD GoPro and did not have the option to flip it...or if it did it was not in the manual.

    Re: Some more video silliness

    The manuals are at http://www.goprocamera.com/contact:

    "UPSIDE DOWN IMAGE CAPTURE
    If you need to mount your camera upside down to get the perfect photo or video angle, you can program
    the camera to save the photo or video upside down..."

    Even my first-gen SD gopro has this function in it.

    Great fun Kfab.

    600HP on the snow

    We should start a sticky post for all members video postings to have them in one place?

    Has been some great stuff posted.

    Bought myself a Contour HD after watching the guy I hired using them in making my video.

    Fantastic pictures and awesome placements are now the norm.
