very artistic mate.... I wouldn't go applying for any jobs as a steady-cam operator though....

100,000 miles = nearly run in

Titsy · July 23, 2006, 02:16:44 PM

Can depend on lots of things , I doubt mine would make 100,000 miles because it hasn't been driven enough, under use can be worse than over use !

It wants me to install iTunes to play it! Na

I hate being forced to install stuff like that.

Got to love the PC for that

You don't need itunes?
You do need quicktime though.

F Body · July 23, 2006, 02:29:12 PM

Took about 5 minutes to load but ran OK ?

Gotta love 100,000 miles at 100mph

So you were driving at 105mph on the road whilst videoing your speedo ?

Probally safer than using a mobile

HardRockCamaro · July 23, 2006, 02:32:50 PM

Yeah I don't condone it...

I was using the movie mode on the digicam so I had no steadyshot mode sadly...

quick time alternative \o

Once installed, browse to the start menu where it resides, and open media player classic

HardRockCamaro · July 23, 2006, 04:13:10 PM

Yeah,

I started filming when we are at the lights and as we went down the sliproad it flicked over to 99,999
So I nailed it as I could see the traffic was light.
As she got to 99,999.9 some prat in a people carrier started to pull out in front of me. I knew it was a one shot deal so I kept my foot nailed and he/she thought better of it and shot back into their lane.
As I was rapidly approaching another car I backed off straight after hence the speeds drop.

Well chuffed with the car to be honest!
I dubbed over the sound as there wasn't much to hear, but I made sure to use the same song I was listening to at the time...

EDGE · July 23, 2006, 04:39:17 PM
