I'll post up a few clips from the Nex5. Basically I needed to compensate for the 3 different cameras and imovie aint good at matching it all up..

I also wanted to try and make it a bit different than just straight bike head cam footage.. We did not get a quater of what we wanted to get coz of the wind so I had to make the most of what little we got..

Dave,

Well done ! .................. I can understand what you're doing with the effects and it does work in parts but the Scottish Tourist Board wont like it ? That area is fantastic and it is enticing me to get back on the bike.

Editing HD is a bit of a labour so hats off to you and the guys............

One has to commend the considerable restraint excercised by the Pilot........ a 1000 Euro just gone on the wind. Reminds me of the unfortunate individual from Scotland who lost a 50K Draganflyer on its maiden, apparently he mistook the need to lock on to Satellites before flight ? Wonder if it ever turned up ?

A Bit shaky and bit Jelly-y but its the first of many to come and hopefully I can keep it shiny-side-up for long enough to get some good footage in the future

Nice stable platform but the image appears soft ? Are you using the GoPro HD in its protective housing ?
Make sure the lense and housing lense are clean. Do a test from your hand and compare images. If there is no apparent improvement then there appears to be a problem with your GoPro. Mine is sharp as a tack ?

It may have something to do with the player but I doubt it ?

How do you have the camera mounted?

There seems to be some excess prop noise, have you balanced them? What props are they?

No casing, I just mounted it straight onto the camera mount with some tape and cable ties.... You reckon the GoPro might be the issue ? Filing in the 1080 mode, maybe I should use the 720 60fps

Vibration.. balance the props to reduce the vibration transmitted to the frame from out of balanced props.. They just dont sound right to me but I aint using that frame and props..

Even before the motors spin, the image appears soft................ clean the lenses and do a hand test and compare before chasing vibes and different modes. 720P is not as prone to the dreaded 'jello' as 1080p.

Think I know why .. I just checked the raw video and its much more crisp than the vimeo version .. IO imported it into iMovie and I think i the res was reduced down from 1080p.
I'll put a raw version up and see if its any different... Ah I just checked and I've reached my upload limit on Vimeo. Will have to chop it down this eve and try again
