Title: Indian Video
Post by: Desperate on January 21, 2006, 08:04:59 AM
Just managed to suss out my digicam and get it to take video. The hard part was downloading and filing it, which I've done. I can only send 1 minute of film out by Email, and it's not exactly BBC quality. I've done a couple of clips of firing up my Indian Chop (it's got sound). If you wanna look, let me know.
Best if you're on Broadband, it's 12Mb (whatever the hell 12mb is).

Yodie tells me 12MB & about a minute long is the ideal size for posting on the site Chris, so email 'em off to him please! His address is on the Contacts page. He's a very busy Bunny though, with a million projects on the go at the same time, so it may take a few days to get 'em online.
Bearing in mind I've got the IQ of a tadpole -how do you get your digi camera to take video & how do you file it? Mine will do up to 4 minutes silent but I've got no idea how!

Manky, there's a round dial on the top of my camera with different squiggles on it. One looks like an old fasioned movie camera. I just turned it to that and pressed the button. Bet yours does sound too. But it will replay thru the camera silent. When you film, move the camera slowly. I used a tripod. Downloading was a case of sitting with the book and trail and error. I'm crap with computers, and I'm not sure how I did it!
Have you seen my vid? I just got a blank screen.

The videos are great Chris.You wouldn't think just watching someone starting their bike would be so entertaining would you! Simple but ideal for the site.
No squiggly symbols on my Fuji camera. Think I found the video setting in the menu once but then couldn't figure out how to start filming, (not just pressing the button). Guess I'll have to try & find the manual.
