    Yes, this was recorded at a safe speed, using a camera mount i made and a wide angle lens.
    I've been experimenting through the week with various camera mounts to provide a stable vibration free image, and a lens to provide a realistic (but wide) point of view.
    Originalty it was in HDTV-720 resolution, for a breathtaking view.
    But it had be compressed to upload it here.
    Is any one else interested in video production?

    300 km/hour

    the clip is 20 seconds viewing time,
    i spent an entire day adapting a wide angle lense to fit this video camera.
    i handmade the bracket to attach to my bike
    i waited a whole week for a shadow to visit me so i could ride the bike with my camera mount (im still on L plates)
    i waited half my life for a video camera with no moving parts and solidstate recording so i could record HIGH DEFINITION (720P) video from a car or motorbike.
    i posted the same clip to metacafe and it was watched by 600 people in the first 24 hours.

    why did u watch it,
    what were u hoping to see?

    see there's your problem

    you have a kwaka.
    As a general rule, the better it felt when you said it, the more trouble it's going to get you into.

    well i thought it was pretty cool, would be even cooler using those techniques in a little bike movie,
    I plan on making some film clips to my favourite dance tracks starring me and my pals riding bikes.

    maybe u could help me achieve this.

    I quite like the effect.
    Some say he eats sidchrome for breakfast

    Some say he only showers on even days of the week

    Some say he put an R1 motor in a coffee machine

    All we know is he's Hewie.

    You attach it in QLD.

    Steve, what camera is it? How did you mount it etc? Some more technical info would be nice.
    If you can... you MUST!

    The problem with your speeding up the footage is the lines you were taking were such that you were clearly doing a lower speed and speeding it up. If it were filmed at twice the speed you used, it'd have been far more realistic. Problem with that is that legalities start to come into it when you're filming what you're doing...

    exactly.
    it was recorded at 40 km a hour (the speed limit for the area), just a peacefull learner ride. it wasn't untill i was home i realised for that part of the ride there was no other trafic so the illusion of speed was easier to create.

    what i need (might make) is a camera support that can roll. then dial in a suitable roll angle depending on the curve of the road.
    or maybe just rotate the image in the edit suite, but that doesnt look right either....


    stay tuned for more

    hey,
    its all a bit secret at the moment.
    there is a photo on my bike page at the PSB garage.
    my camera is 720HD (television) recording to a card, i wasn't satisfied with the 512x384 (webcam) res of the gopro camera. (but it is a nice product)
    i made a bracket that conects near the rear-vision mirror, the cable ties you see are just secondary safety straps. the camera can also look back to the rider, another camera mount looks out the back over the muffler, but i havent got to ride with that one yet, there is a slight safety issue there also...

    i modified the camera with a wide angle lense but the prototype has issues with vibration and colour shift at the edges, so i need to engineer the lens mount different next time.

    i'm still on L plates so once i make some thing i have to wait for a shadow to visit to try it out, 12 days to go and i should be free to ride!

    cheers

    what bike do you have?
