Default New Go-Pro Cameras= New Videos

Just got a couple go pro cameras today. I shot in all 1080hd, so I can't upload most of them on this old computer. Any advice on how to use them/where to mount them? A buddy and myself will have 3 tomorrow, and will be heading to Gruene/Luchenbach and hitting a lot of the backroads by my riverhouse. I'd like to get some quality videos, but don't exactly know the best way to set them up. Thanks, and enjoy!

Be careful. If you get pulled over in good ole' boy land they may want to see what you've been doing on the cameras

Cool videos..

Not to try and make less of them but, I wouldn't want someone to send them off to the police like they did with the guy selling his Vette.

I didn't watch all of them 100% but. I did see your face as you were driving might want to blur them out.

Just my .02 just to play it safe..

But very cool cameras.... I want one lol

1 - Dont incriminate yourself
2 - Edit out your face or license plate
3 - Dont mount it in direct wind
4 - keep the camera as close to the mounting point a possible, so it doesnt wobble. Don't add a bunch of extensions.
5 - the little clippy mounts with the stickies, I put a piece of paper in between the two so the vibration isnt there. That little rubber thing they provide is a PITA
6 - LIGHTING, LIGHTING, LIGHTING, LIGHTING, LIGHTING

Thanks guys. Got some good videos of the hill country back roads today. Videos should turn out. Too bad Metal wires are handing out of the MT drag radials and the car is parked at the river house. I'll be headed to the mile in a few hours in D98GT's 5.0, but the Go-Pro videos we got around Luchenbach are awesome today.
