    Well, I was bored yesterday, so I decided to test my new Sony camera (it has a movie feature and actually isn't too bad!) and see if it works for capturing sound/video, etc.

    The videos are a little shaky because my gf is holding the camera, but she did a pretty decent job. I have since ordered a suction cup mount for the window and when that comes in, I'll be making some better (longer) videos that should look a little more professional.

    Anyway, I uploaded some segments from the couple of test videos I shot to see how the camera did. Like I say, they are a bit rough, but you can hear the car pretty well :)

    Here are the links:

    Nice shots Ray. The 360 sounds great! What camera are you using?

    I just bought a Sony DCR-SR100 Camcorder (the one with the 30GB hard drive) to shoot some in-car videos of my F430. In testing it out though, it seems that the vibration from the car causes the camera to crap out with a recording error. It's probably not an issue with cameras that record to a CF card, but something folks should be on the look out for if they're thinking of buying the SR-100.

    Ah the Monterey tunnel. You need a clearer road. You should have been doing a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gear pull in that tunnel.

    Ray,

    How long have your ventures actually been funded by the Monterey Chamber of Commerce?

    Thanks! Yeah, it's actually the little Sony DSC-W70. One heck of a great camera. I have a 2GB high speed memory stick in it, so it's got plenty of recording time (and something like 12,000 photos on the VGA setting :) Anyway, on full 640x480 high res video, I can record for around 25 minutes.

    I'm running over to pickup my gf.. I'll take the camera and see if maybe the tunnel is clear :)

    The mount I purchased should be in soon also.

    I did another run after getting gas on the 360, but the camera wigged out because of it's auto focus stuff. I checked the manual and figured out how to turn that off. So I'm going to wait until I get the camera mount for the window, then record some videos (maybe this weekend). I have to wait until 2 am though, so that there is no traffic in the tunnel, etc. I'll also drive around in the Macy's underground parking lot.. the tubi and cats sound amazing in there! :)

    I'll post the links here when I have them :)

    It was fun watching full screen. You should show a pic of yourself and your girlfriend. It seems like we know you from your posts, but just the one photo.

    sure... here are some shots of me and also some shots of Lenai. That's me in the middle there between my two friends and then also next to the 360 (the night it was delivered actually). The rest of the pics are of Lenai - I feel she's more beautiful in person... photos tend not to do her justice in my opinion.

    best of luck. I'm not a huge fan of black cars. They look good in some ways, but in other ways you lose the lines of the car. I used to want a black 355 in the worst way, at least until I saw one in person :)

    let us know if you get the car! It sounds nice.
