Film at 11You might have noticed there were no photos in today's ride report, a rarity. That's because I'm finally coming up with a workable solution for shooting video on our rides, using the Contour HD camera. The problem had been the mounting system; until recently, they only had a helmet mount (probably better for off-road use, as head movements can be distracting) and a bike mount for small-diameter bars. They finally came out with a mount for oversized (which are now the norm) road bars, and I took it for its first test this morning. Still a few bugs in the system; the way I had it set up, it would sometimes hit my left leg when standing, which caused me to knock it out of place a couple of times (not to mention mess with my climbing!). I finally stopped 2/3rds of the way through the ride and re-oriented it to have its body more inward than outward, which did the trick. No videos to show yet, just the shot at the top of this post, done from a print screen. It's going to take a while to get the image stabilized and learn how to use Adobe Premiere, but I'll get there. |
