Hi!
I'm at the moment trying to figure out which HD camcorders that would be suitable for track use (as well as a little bit of 'normal' use).
From what I have been able to dig up, the following points is required to have a good solution:
Solid state storage.
Possiblity for wide angle lense(to record the sensation of speed)
The possibility for connecting an external microfone, to get the sound
recorded the way you like.
From the research I have done so far, the major issue is to get
sharp recording. I have understood that CMOS based cameras in particular
is susceptible to produce recordings that are rather blurry(due to vibration), but also CCD cameras are struggling.
I am aware of the chasecam option, but as far as I have understood
they have currently no HD solution available, although I have read that something is in the pipeline. (Although I would assume the initial price of such a solution would be rather high as well, given that other HD bulletcams are rather pricy)
Does any of you have experience of any HD cameras that would fit the
requirements for trackday video recordings?
