Yay I got my mount, threw it on the handlebars, and it did ok! still need to figure out why it looks all wavy in some parts lol, might need to adjust the camera position and or internal settings...my mp3 player only records in mono /facepalm, that sucks, oh well. oh ya and it took like 3 hours to edit everything and about 8 hours to upload it lol. Off to a good start i think lol, any tips and or advice is much appreciated!!!!

The video is wavy because of the vibration. It is a hard thing to fix, but if you can isolate the camera mount with some rubber, that will help a little. What kind of mount are you using? What model camera? It definitely takes some playing around with....

I just ordered a GoPro for $175...but anyway, sounds like a good cam, just make sure that it is supported well, and try to isolate the mount a little. Throw some strips of rubber in between the mount and the handlebar, that could control the shaking a little bit.

Thanks, will give it a try! maybe need to clean off my windscreen as well, i thought maybe the camera was trying to focus in on the spots on the windscreen and maybe that was making the picture strange

I have the perfect example of wavy video because of vibration. I had a cheap Ebay camera that I got, and mounted to my handlebars...here it is:

Hi Fazer,

I'm actually going to guess that the waviness of your video is actually due to the image stabilization of your camera combined with motion and vibration from being on the bike. Try turning off image stabilization on your camera and see if the waviness goes away. Image stabilization does weird things sometimes.

If the video software you are using has image stabilization maybe give it a try to try and settle the picture out. Great vid though :)

Thank you, i will definitely try that on the next video i did have the image stabilizer on, i turned off face recognition and the stabilizer, hope that helps a bit.
