Good morning sir

I did a quick test wi my GoPro yesterday. I stuck it to the fender and went for a quick drive. The video is really good but the sound =

An external mic and the supporting hardware is in my future. Thanks for doing all the experimenting

mr.gale- hahaha, possibly. good thing internet does not transmit odor.

on the gopro test drive.

yes, the audio is a challenge on the thing and from inside vehicle shots, even with spot metering on, the wash-out effect on a sunny day is the next issue im trying to tackle.

i am not sure if adding a ND filter over the gopro housing is going to help my situation or not yet. im thinking about temporarily mounting a 52mm ND for kicks. if it helps, i will make a custom mount or something on the outer case.

that sucks.

can you get it from another shop? and just return the thing due to 'delay.' let the shop eat the freight too. i dont take delay as an excuse these days from online shops. wat good are they if they cant deliver on time? id just buy the damn thing locally as most local shops honor other shop prices.

Kind of. They had found a leak from the radiator hose and had to order the part. Swapped even though I was 200 miles over the warranty apparently. They also fixed the insultaion for the airbox that I might have messed up when installing the post maf tubes.

I was reading that you were having problems with that. I was also going to suggest the spot metering,but looks like you beat me to it. Let me know how the ND filter works out for you. My test looked great, but it was a little overcast yesterday.

if your camera is outside the car you shouldn't have much issues unless you're on snow or something. it's when taken from inside the car with no sunroof on a sunny day. the interior shots look great, but the outside is washed out sometimes.

i think if i have the same setup in my G with the sunroof shade open i will not have this problem.
