If its in the yard, lets see it LES;)

new vidio
 

Ive posted it, slow upload for video only 34k .
sorry vidio skips forward as it runs but thats the free software that comes with the camera.They want 24£ for full version so i might have to dip in my pocket unless one of the lads at the yard has some editing software.

Saw it great stuff (tidy yard) :)

I have some stuff I shot in the early nineties, but the camera tended to move about a bit and I had deafening country music on the radio, so when I had to adjust the camera, the continuity is lost, also bitty and not edited or titled, but One day.

Oh and I will have to cut out the blaspheming, well I am only human. I think.

Yes i made the same mistakes with my first couple of videos , its amazing just how loud we play the radio to hear it over the truck noise.
The trick is to stay quiet whilst video runs.
There are pc cards that will convert cine cam footage to digital, its slow but worth it.
my cam shoots digital at 5 megapix so resulting vidio is massive like 200MB for 7 mins so i still have to run it through software to shrink it before posting.
The vid ive just posted was still 36MB and upload bandwidth is slow 34kb,s

Hi Les, mine was on my first video camera, standard 8mm.

I was driving an FL10, with dry powder tank, and when empty especially, it bounced like hell and the camera was sitting on the centre dash tray, secured loosely with bungee, hooked under the panel joints.

I am useless with cameras, video or single shot, despite all the programmes and instructions. my brain just was not made to absorb it all.

I have a 'Grabee' connection, which allows me to download my old 8mm analogue vids to my computer, it is fine, but my head is not up to using it's full potential. ...One day.

yes, the music. I did the same thing too.
Found some old movies from me driving bus. Loud rock music...
Not so loud that the passengers can't have a conversation, but loud enough to destroy the movie :)

I can't see any trouble with filming while driving, as long as you do like I do it:
Mount the camera somewhere, push "Rec" and then do what you always do: Drive.
It's not like I sit with the camera in my hand all the time.

Anything is elegal whilst driving if it impares your driving .but the young will take it to the limits .Ive seen some motorcycle vidios at 170 mph.
And ferrari vidios at break neck speeds on main roads, frightening.
