Hi All;
I use a combination of GoPro's and Contour cameras to record drives (we call them cruises) with my Corvette buddies. It is a bit of work to charge, prep cards, mount and then remember to start these action cameras that I put on the car. Other then the obvious lack of changing mount options, would a dash cam work for me to get video of a cruise and put together a movie (I use iMovie to FCP X)? I am happy shooting at 720p & 30 FPS as I stream most of my movies on Vimeo or Facebook.
I am concerned with the videos being recorded in 1 - 3 minute segments. How would that effect my workflow?
I see a lot of benefits in being able to just get in the car and have the video equipment ready.
Anyone doing this?
