Out for a Drive

Now that's an action shot! Did you strap the camera to the front bumper and fire it via infra-red remote? Very, very clever and a great result.

Thats really good. You had better tell us all how you did it or there will be a lot of accidents with people hanging onto the trunk with one hand and holding a camera in the other!

Super WOOOOOWWWWW

Super dynamic shot, almost feel as if I am moving with the car, well taken

Thanks for the comments. The shot was taken using a multi-arm camera mount to locate the camera near the corner of the front bumper facing backward. I fired the camera with a home-made remote switch that plugs into the remote jack on the camera (*istDL2). I really want to use this mount more but track officials have mostly banned their use, due to people using 'cheapo' single point versions that fall off. Mine is a proper triple mount type with Manfrotto suction pads and clamps that many TV production companies use, so more than up to the job. I have used it for interior shots too.

Here's a link to shot of it on the side of my Jeep with my A3 mounted (poor quality scan, and bent rods are due to the fisheye!)
