Default helmet cam

Some helmet cam video I took today. I just got the camera the other day so I'm still figuring out the settings. The original was pretty decent, but YouTube took its toll on the quality.

Great video Brian! I really like it towards the end when the speed picks up. It would be cool to hear it without the music, four strokes sound so nice...

Nice.

Perfect song selection.

Is there an appropriate song with green in it?

Thanks guys. I'm not too good with this video stuff. I did figure out how to touch up the lighting though so it's not so washed out. I'll re-upload a new version and see how it turns out tomorrow once it's done exporting. Stay tuned.

Excellent video! Started to giggle when you went through the trees and the leaves got caught on the camera progressively cutting off more and more of the video. My coworkers were starting to get worried about me

Good job!!

Cool Video. I bet it Takes some skills to get that 450 through those tight woods trails. Please post some pics of the cam & mounting on the helmet if you can. How do you protect the Lenz?

Thanks
Gerry

Here's my helmet cam. It works great. I just need to figure out the best settings, microphone placement, etc.

I generally like no music, too, but this is the first ride with the camera and the microphone was picking up a good bit of wind noise so I used the music to hide most of that.
