Green Lake in Whistler B.C. Site of 2010 Winter Olympics. Just got a new really inexpensive Juji A180 camera that is very user friendly. Posted this location before but not with this camera.

Hi, there.
I finally bought some cheap HD camcorder for bike-riding-video.
I know it's not Photo, but very short new camcorder test clip; excuse me....
But I wonder if this new cam. could endure bike's high vibration,
as I saw lots of negative comments on the HD camcorder with vehichle mounting.
Anyway, I might have lots of trial-error for new mounting.. ha ha ha

Ha, ha, ha...
Mr. Danny.
No, its price is cheaper than my current still camera.
However, I may have to skip my lunches and favorite dinner for a time.... just kidding.
It's Sanyo Xacti CA9.
1. Water Proof which I was looking for.
2. Full manual control >> I like this function as sometimes fine tunning is needed for shooting.
3. Format: max HD 720, 30fps >> good for my old computer for viewing and editing. (and SD 640x480)
if goest up to 1080 HD >> my computer will cry... ha ha ha , so I don't have to upgrade my computer.
4. 9 m. pixel Still Photo function
5. only optical 5X zoom, but good enough for the my purpose. (digital 20x zoom, not be needed)
6. Digital Image Stabilization function
7. Output formate is MP4 >> can upload directly to YouTube
And this MP4 can be used at Free moive editor >> Microsoft Movie Maker (Live.com >> download Live Application >> included)
8. etc..etc...

But image sensor is CMOS; which has some bad reputation on high speed and vibration.
So, I may have to mount at Helmet where vibration is minimal...

Next time, let me take photo out of this new camera.. i hope it goes well.

Thanks

i should get something like that, I dont take a lot of video tho.

maybe you can make some kind of shock absorbing thing to set the camera on when you mount it to the bike that will reduce the vibration.

I missed this while they were building.
