OK, now i cant stop myself from daydreaming at times about getting back into filming stuff.. especially the thoughts of filming whilst riding (girls windows at night, that kinda thing) and as my father keeps reminding me (much to mrs consequences disapproving “where do you get the money from?” disdain)… lifes too short to keep pushing my daydreams to the side.
one of the things i’d want to make an effort to include is good quality shots of the surroundings in which the riding is taking place… i.e shots of the hills, woods, trails, trees etc etc. also reasonably close close-ups of bike parts moving without needing to use a horrible digital zoom.
at the moment i’m torn between the contour HD and the go pro HD, liking the all-in-oneness of the contour but liking all the various mounts for the go-pro. (its gotta be HD otherwise i’ll buy something and wish i had gone for HD)
anyone tired mounting either on a tri-pod for static shots? is it possible to use a tripod with them?
anybody able to comment on their performance in low light stuff like heavily wooded singletrack?
anyone able to comment/show me examples of static-ish shots of nature instead of pacey riding?
anyone able to convince me that i’d need to invest in fast computerness and software to do the camera work justice?
i thank you all in advance for you replies and help 8)
