Aaahhh…I’ll mess with it a little more this year. I’ve always sort of blown off Storyteller and just downloaded the files directly into a folder.
I still watch your March WY videos from time to time. The First 5 Days is excellent but the Next 5 Days is just plain fun to watch.
From what I’ve seen, Byrn71 is good but can he sidehill, and gather firewood at the same time? The Twig may still have a thing or two to teach him.
Thanks! That was a fun trip for sure! My only regrets was that we did not make it over to hook up with the rest of the JD members that were out at the same time! I kind of like the way The Next 5 Days flows with the music a bit more but some of the shots in the First 5 days were cool. The amount of footage I have from those 10 days of riding is crazy and the amount of footage that is worth editing is disappointing. Gotta always remember that a wide lens on a helmet camera makes things look flatter than they really are!
In regards to battery life: Never an issue if you decide what you really want to record. When you first get a camera your maiden voyage will have long running shots that really get boring to watch except for at 2.31 min, 5 min 8.31 minutes, 12 min and so on. So you find yourself showing people what the ride was like and skipping around or just plain not being able to find the cool things you remember. I have found the Contour Roam allows me in seconds to reach up and slide the on switch forward. When on it is recording and when off well - not recording. These are the only 2 on camera controls. I never run low on battery life...
Mr. Byrn71 can say what he wants but the smack talk started this year from his newborn son! I was shocked that a child so young already had the ability to smack talk like his father (hint hint). Use caution when chasing your elders Mr. Byrn! You may find a bit of Roost heading your way!
