I shot this while riding my first mountain bike race. I used a Canon Powershot digital camera set to video mode. I mounted it to my handle bars using a headlight mount and 1/4" bolt & wingnut with a washer as a platform for the camera. The vibration was quite loud so I had to turn the audio down during editing. I came in 25th Place in the "Beginner" category. April 12th 2008

  • Hi Kevin, Cool single track look awsume!

    What size resolution did you set on your cam? 640x480, 320x240 or 160x120? I used my Nokia 6220 cam for my clip but it sucked. Will try my Powershot soon. What size memory card?

    Regards

    Alex

  • Alex, The camera was set to the highest rez 640x480 and 30 FPS. White Balance was set to "auto" At that rez I can get about 56 min. of video on a 2GB card.

  • I'm not happy with the "Pixelation" that occurs during upload to YouTube. I've been playing with different compression formats but no luck getting rid of it so far.
