Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
Went out on a cruise with a bunch of other cars and I decided to try and get some in-car camera footage using the D90 and the 10.5 fisheye. I mounted it with a manfrotto tripod in the back. It came out pretty good.

I have to admit it came out better than I would have thought. I would like to see an urban try.
 
One I would suggest is hook it up to a laptop and set it to take a photo every 5 seconds, at night time this is cool if you make it a long exposure. Time laps with streaky outsides :)
Good start though. You need to shield the mic from the wind.
 
do it at top speeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed :D
 
don't let the white car burn you next time!
 
Just dont end up like this guy:

sweet work man! what kinda car you rockin?
 
You know what would have been sweet?!??!?! Is if you would have zipped by a CHP officer and he turned around to nab you. Then pulled you out and slammed you onto your hood for driving like that on a canyon road with other cars.

I'm not hating, I've done my fair share of open road debauchery (400hp turbo 4cyl then Vette), but I stayed away from situations like that, where you cant see whats around the corner and you have no room.
A nice open highway like the 15 going to Vegas, or some back farm roads are a better alternative.

This sounds like a really cool idea! I may just have to do that myself...

Yea I've actually already tried that with the same rig:

That shot came out really clean! How did you have your tripod mounted? I'm susprised to see such little movement/blur.

Here's one I took a while ago with some minor post for the coloring:

I like the idea of doing time lapse driving with long exposures. I think I'll give that a try tonight.
