    Yeah, I hate it when I get a split stream, and one shoots in the toilet and one shoots outside. Never can decide which one to aim. :eek:

    First off , Love the Flatty and a real nice road and the picture was sharp and clean but the stream was chopped up and only got about 7-8 sec before it stopped . The camera was great too.

    If it's real jerky, just pause the video for a few minutes and then come back to it.

    I tried the whole "hit pause and wait" thing while I went out to the workshop but the pictures are still jumpy but chrisp, sound is great.
    Maybe I need to switch on my Mad Max clutched supercharger!
    Ryan, the car is looking really goooood. I just got my 400-450 16" and 700-16" Firestones just like yours and my wires are away getting blasted and painted Black!

    This is all good - Speed Channel dot has nothing on JJ/HAMB now. Your engine is looking and sounding fine as well.

    Awesome I think that's as close to actually driving a Hot Rod I have ever been.
    What camera were you using? It looked fantaztic.

    LOL... but it shakes just as bad as my old man's 8mm Kodak did! Honestly, I'm simply amazed at the image quality. Please get that camera bolted to something! Do you have a monopod? You might be able to duct tape it to something vertical and screw the camera down. Gary

    What to say? Awesome video, good sound, immaculate flathead: not yet seen, sound only in video...:Thanks one more time, Ryan!
     
  20. Worked fine for me.

    How about a few details on the camera?

    I've been looking at videocams in the $200. - $300. price range.

    Even down at the budget end of the scale, they have a lot of features.

    An especially appealing one is the "shake" eliminator.
    That should help out a lot of folks.

    Keep an eye open at garage sales, you can get some good quality tripods for not much $$.

    An old desert rat I met a few years back gave me one that's only missing the camera adaptor and it's easy to make.


    I have some Super 8 stuff taken when the roadster had been running for a few months.

    Granddaughter - at about five years old - did pretty good filming the rolling shots.

    Until I nailed it in 2nd gear.

    Got some great pics of the top's underside....

    Looks really nice - I'll be picking up a MinoHD very soon.

    In the meantime, I've been using my Canon SX1-IS to take HD video and have been pretty impressed... YouTube makes it*****, but the raw footage is beautiful.

    Some goofy samples (click HD or HQ at lower right) -

    Sorry Folks - Flip Mino HD. Under $200.

    Blake, that last video is the funniest thing I've ever seen.

    I've got a Rx for your Parkinsonian tremor. HD looked good, though.
