I was wondering what software you use to edit your videos? I'm having real trouble finding anything that will work.

[garethrowson]

@iiiimagoo Try a 3rd party app like MovieEdit by Paul FitzGerald, this will convert the 60fps footage to double length 30fps - then I just used iMovie.

Have just received my ATC9K and already need some advice please. What software do you use to edit your videos, I have a copy of Power Director 7 but it doesn't want to know. Don't want to upgrade to PD9 if it still won't handle the output from ATC. As you can tell I am not too familiar with editing software. Thanks

[garethrowson]

@MsMonkington no worries, only thing I can suggest is changing the suffix, so if its .mp4 try manually changing it to .mov and the programme might recognise it.

[garethrowson]

It simply shows the results you can get using some of features the camera offers. It's an accompaniment to the main written review on the WideWorld website - readers can actually see the outcome of testing rather than just reading about it. All part of the assessment of the product - or review some would argue ;)

[garethrowson]

It's called 'firelight' by Kokino, a UK band. It's not been officially released yet so you may have trouble tracking it down but should hopefully be released later this year.

@garethrowson Thanks heaps for that. I'll give it a go and see how I get on. It'd be nice to be able to upload some of my footage. Cheers.

does the camera die if it gets shot by a bb gun like 130ms??

@garyfreefly1 Thats a good tip! so were you able to setup this camera on the GoPro mounting? Ive tried on my snowboard and also on my Motorbike.... the suction cup is completely rubbish, shakes all over and doesnt feel 100% secure when I'm 200kmh on my bike, while the goro, the suction cup even holds on the surface of my helmet..

On the snowboard and had to use the Velcro strap to tied it up on my boots.. to fit on the board also wasn't very secure... the silicon strap, completely rubbish again

im thinking of getting one for the lifeboat and other adventures . i saw the surfboard strap and i did think i would not use that on my board . i would make my own fitting . shame the FOV isnt as wide as the go-pro .

as the the surfer , he is ok but most importantly he loves it .

@garethrowson they're now called SOLARSTATE and you can listen to them and download it free.
