Having fun with a video camera

[LastDeadLast]

OK folks, after an afternoon of leaf gathering and bagging, I decided to play with our new video camera (Canon Elura 100). Since I just got the TR6 back from the exhaust guy (again, for like the 3rd time), I thought I would film a take-off to see what it sounded like. Here's the result, it's a little big, but it should stream:

I'm going to continue to play with this, possibly get a camera mount to see how far I can go with it.

What do you think? The car is running stainless headers (TRF), with dual two inch pipes with flowmaster resonators and custom mufflers with dual polished/angled tips.

Sounds good to me.

Sounds good! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

I need to stabilize the mount that I used and figure out how to reduce the wind noise somewhat. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Awesome! I want mine to sound like that one of these days!

Shawn,

You're TR sounds great! As for your audio issues, I'm talking to these guys about their stage 1 kit:

It connects right up to a camcorder with AV inputs. It includes the remote camera with a mount, a high gain mic and the processor box. Maybe if I've been a good boy this year.....

Totally Awesome!!

Well Done

Everytime I see one of those or think about gettin one I try to figure out how to make it pay for itself. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I already know how to make the camera more stable and my 'quick' solution to the wind noise issue it to put the top up but unzip the rear window. I just really hate having the top up in my TR6. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

That sounds great, and surely more bearable in the cockpit than a Monza system.

And speaking of videos, my '72 TR6 is at the tail end of the first video on this page:
