Default New Ipad video.

Thought I would try and see if there was a difference using the Ipad's 1080dpi video feature.

Great video - looks great!
Did you have the recording setting at max? The reason I ask is my GoPro vids upload to YouTube with a 1080p playback and I could only see a max of a 720p selection for yours.

I'll check....noticed 720 max too.

EDITED: Just checked the IPad specs.....It's NOT 1080dpi... it's 720. Only the new IPad 3 has 1080...IPad 2 and under have 720dpi. Oh well....GoPro here I come...they are reduced to $129.99 at Best Buy now.

I'm continually impressed with the quality of photo/video of the newer mobile gadgets.

A lot of the time the video looks alright, but the sound is easily distorted and clipped, but the sound from your video sounds great! Awesome sounding cam too!

Great looking vette; did you cover the sun visors in red vinyl or cloth?? I'd like some torch red sun visors myself, so I'd be interested in knowing about yours.

Covered in torch red vinyl, not cloth. Cost me $80.00 at local upholstery shop.

In just a couple of months, Microsoft will be releasing the Surface and Surface Pro tablets. Each will weigh 2 lbs or less and have a magnetically attached keyboard. The Surface Pro will have USB 3.0 and the ability to run full-blown programs on Windows 8 - something many of todays crop of tablets can't do. An Ivybridge I5 processor will be blazing fast; I am looking forward to this tablet, as it will be potent enough to run my CAD program on it.

....just in time for Christmas!

ZR2 high rise hood (CorvetteCreationz.com) next week
ZR front fenders (CorvetteCreationz.com) two months
Rear diffiuser (Waiting for Marc@Vettenuts.net to complete)maybe 4 months.
Later next year.....630hp LS3 416ci. (Mast Motorsports down the street) Takes some planning but doable.

It never ends....only the wallet gets mighty thin!

$130?? Make sure it's the Hero2 not the original Hero. I just bought a replacement last week in L.A. (Laguna Beach waves snapped my neck strap and took the first one out to sea...) and it was $300 at Best buy.

BTW, 720p is still good!
