Thrash the cam in the surf...
There's about three WP video cams I've been working with ..and tried all sorts of mounts. This one is a chest mounting of the newish - you guys are going to hate these - Flip Video Cams. I got a kayaker to test it for me last Sunday.

Should probably put in a warning that it is a 693 MByte download.

Sorry Bill - you're right. I shudda Red Flagged it.
...I've been having 'issues' with quality and file size. I'm having a helluva time finding a decent balance. I've got another - 2+min of a Motocross rider wearing my Grip - and it looks like sh/t unless it's raw... The guys over in Post Production are pointing me in the direction. Thanks. j i m |

Here's one that 10% the size... Got this using the ffmpegX encoder - pointed out by Derek in the Mac post processing section - which converted the big QT file into a mp4 It's not e-x-a-c-t-l-y the same quality ..but WTH - it's 10%!

Woah! ...I went and looked at it in IE on a PC we use to run an embroidery machine that uses Windows XP ...and it's clunky as hell?! It seems the audio is ahead of the video, yatta-yatta... Maybe it has to load completely first?! I don't know anything about PCs.
Yeech.. it's loaded and I hit 'rerun' and got the same result. jIm |

I re-coded the above video. (and killed that link...) This one is an avi vs. mp4. It is still 80megs, and pixelates on my Mac a bit ..but doesn't look bad on our PC.
