    Pics and video came out well. Too bad that truck pulled up when we were taking that last pic, that would have been a great shot with all three cars. How many gigs of video did you end up with? Can you send me some of the raw video of us in the twisties?

    The one you ordered looks like a lot better quality. I would have payed the little bit extra money too. You don't exactly want to get home and realize your camera was vibrating up and down the whole trip.

    What kind of camera are you using?

    That mount is quite small and not good for much more than a point n shoot

    I have a Nikon D5000 for my Photos and a JVC Everio 1080p for my Filming which is what I will be using the suction cup mount for. The Mount is recommended for 4 lbs and my camera weighs 11.1 oz so it should be fine.


    Here is a review on it by some random guy... but he put his nikon DSLR on it...

    Hands never at 10 and 2.

    Thats old theory and it doesn't hold true anymore.

    3 and 9 is closer to correct for performance driving.

    Definitely the second one for me, First one pics up a little too much extra noise and the third sounds like it had a baffle on it.
