Camera Work

With the build nearing completion, I thought it would be a good time to look at how I'm going to record it's first steps into the real world, so I've bought a camera setup.

The best regarded setup at the moment (according to OzClubbies) is the Elmo SUV camera - it has a good resolution lipstick lens that you can mount onto the rollbar, and a simple, lightweight recording unit that you can stop and start with one button press. I bought the camera with 150cm cable, the rubber mounting and wide angle lens from Digital Camera Warehouse, who are also well recommended on OzClubbies.

What made it easier was that Frank also has one, so the trend of basically copying everything he does continues ;-)

At the time of writing, DCW has a damn good deal on these things, which make them cheaper than anywhere else on the planet as far as I can tell.....btw, no commercial relationship with them at all. And if they stuff up the delivery you'll be the first to know.

The camera will therefore provide me with some decent video to add to the blog as well as photos, so look out for those in future ;-)
