So I got a new camera

I had a bad day today when it comes to taking videos. Nothing seemed to be going right, until I checked the mail and there was a present just for me! a new Sena Prism Tube Camera. Here are my initial thoughts.

I haven't had time to watch the video, but I did pull up the camera on amazon for a moment. Very interesting looking camera. Are you going to try to use it on the PCX? I have yet to find a camera that could be used on my PCX. The video always came out jittery. It says that it can be put on your helmet. Let us know how you mount it.

Speaking of cameras, I was at Target yesterday and noticed a new camera display. This new camera supposedly takes 360 degree video. How in the world does it do that??

Ya should have watched the Vid Mel.

All is esplayned! Hah!

The Sena Prism Tube is a helmet cam. It is designed to be mounted to a motorcycle helmet. In the vid I mount it, then go for a ride to test it. Since it's a review, I left in some of the poor audio which I don't think is the fault of the device.

Anyway, for the 360 cams, from what I understand, they use a movable fisheye lens and compositing software to work the magic.
