so here is a sample video of the gopro without and with housing...

without:

and with:
http://youtu.be/NWmvBbWyTTA

its making a really loud bloody clonking noise, which i noticed in the videos i took earlier in the day yesterday.

has anyone experienced this? seems like something is loose, but i cant see anything moving, or wrong with the camera or housing... could the camera be loose inside the housing maybe?

grr....

thats what mine sounds like, and everyone other video that uses a go pro. some people have suggested to put like a thin piece of foam inside with the camera to make it a tighter fit. but i havent had any real problems with mine

wayanlam · September 15th, 2012, 08:54 PM

foam it is then... cos that loud clonkin sound is really annoying imo!

i just tested the non waterproof housing, and its better, will upload it once ive finished converting twist of the wrist for my iPad, lol

ill try out some foam or something later~

I put mine right on the front of the gas tank. It sits below the windshield and has enough view of the gauges and around the bike. I have one on top of my helmet too from my car track days.

got a cool snapshot of a friend:

by the time he filmed me it was already darker, lighting wasn't quite enough...

does anyone know why Photobucket re-size my GIF animations? ive already re-sized it down to 200 pixels, so that its under 20 mb... but then after i upload it, they re-size the damn thing down to like 60 pixels....

Jiggles · October 14th, 2012, 06:51 PM

idk, mine work

wayanlam · October 14th, 2012, 08:32 PM

how big is that file?

i wonder if they re-size it because my GIF is too big... i did a time lapse of almost 1000 pictures. was putting together a friends R6 that he crashed... got the farings back from the paint workshop with the base coat, and wanted to make sure it was fitting back together before getting the paint done.

10 second time lapse, so managed to capture about 3 hours worth, on the assembly.

Did another of taking it back apart, that was 380 frames, only an hour to tear it back down, lol

but it took about 6 hours to assemble, epoxy some parts, and take it back down, lol

but whats strange is that photobucket has a 25 Mb limit, the file im uploading is 19Mb. grr....

Jiggles · October 14th, 2012, 08:37 PM

Made this one too, idk whats up with your photobucket

Jiggles · October 14th, 2012, 11:32 PM

Just tried a new one, as long as its under 20mb it works for me

wayanlam · October 15th, 2012, 01:50 AM

meh.... whats wrong with my damn dumb bucket of photos

btw, what program do you use to create the gif files?
