Do you have something attached to the bike or try to do it from hand?
I'm strictly referring to taking pictures "on the move". While stopped, there's DSLRs popping up everywhere, I'm sure. But that's another discussion
In the past, I bought stuff for this purpose based on youtube and advertising, which turned out to be a mistake.
I ended up with an Oregon Scientific "action" camera (solid camera, waterproof, but totally useless video) and a Sanyo Xacti vpc-E2 (also waterproof, but barely mediocre video -- i know it's not HD, but still.. -- and very fragile... one drop, from 2-3 ft onto concrete and it was gone)
So I figured this time around, I'd better ask around, people who actually use it like I would.
if you don't use, maybe you can still suggest something?
I'm thinking a RAM mount to the handlebars, something light, weather proof, and shock proof (as possible).
requirements? unsure really, but something along these lines:
-- megapixels: not important
-- lens and image quality: important
-- battery life: very important
-- weatherproof-ness/shockproof-ness : very important
-- size: matters !
-- it must have and lcd, and preferably a viewfinder also
-- must have flash
-- must have a tripod attachement hole (dooh
)-- be able to shoot some sort of movies too
-- fast? meaning, from OFF to SHOOT in as little time as possible... to catch those unexpected but interesting moments...
-- optical image stabilization (i kno, i know... now i'm pushing it
)But then again... tell me what you use
Thanks.
