yup;, I think you might become a target out there

Watch out

People do stupid things near cameras

Nice job Mf4. You can see how the camera makes people sail right at you. Those Superfreaks really stand out well too.

That reminds me I still have 3 sessions of video to edit from Jan/Dec.

Thanks Dave. You will note that I was too busy watching you to see the log in the water. You can see it just as you get close, then I slowed the vid down to see it bob up behind me. I was very surprised I didn't loose the fin!

Gotta figure out the VVid (and whats GVid?) to get higher res. I tried shortening the vid to 3 min then saving to 800x600 because utube said you could get less compression; it is a little bigger in pixels, but no better for resolution.

Too sick to type (flu/Norwalk or whatever), must go back to bed.

Where do you buy those helmet cams.I lookedon the net and there are soo many choices with lots ofwires and battery packs and other things to get in the way and the one you and dave have are compact and efficient

Oh yeah I see that now. That could have hurt.

Vvid = vsocial, GVid = google video. I haven't tried Google video, but it might be worth a try.

Hey Art, try: http://www.goprocamera.com/

I bought mine on Ebay, MF4 got his from their website (I think). Ocean River (the kayak shop near Capitol Iron) in Victoria was supposed to be bringing some in, but I think they are having a hard time getting them.

Hey Art
Yes I ordered mine 'from the factory' at the gopro site. Don't get the gopro hero - get the helmet hero. They have different housings. The helmet hero comes with a bunch of different mounting options.

MF4- I understand your FB-NAS model really kicks some butt, a good option investment to safeguard your camera

Not to mention that Fragile Board Nose Avoidance Systems are very cool

Yep, if the camera hits the board, the cam should be OK!
