I saw a thread a while back of people fitting video cameras in their car.

Well today, i went about making mine camera ready.

The first pic is for the DV Camera, i'm going to be using it to take the feed from the bullet camera that can be attached to the roof.

The internal camera mount is part of a mini tri-pod that i had lying around. Hadn't used it for ages so decided to take it apart and bolt it to my dashboard.

The bullet camera mount is part of the clamp used on a Television aerial, i bent it into the correct shape, gave it a coat of hammerite and rivoted it to the gutter.

The bullet camera came from www.rfconcepts.co.uk i use it when i go Mountain Biking on my helmet.

I use a Sony Mini Dv camera (a PC105 i think). For the bullet camera to work, it requires an AV input.

The roof on my car is the cleanest area when i go greenlaning, but the bullet camera is waterproof (from rain and mud). When i get out and about next i will take some footage, if it's any good i'll let people know. If it's not then i'll work out another area to put it on the car.

i'm really impressed with the idea..would you edit and produce the footage into an off road film or sort of keep it all like a photo album. i have a friend who does film making of his paragliding and i've been pondering making off road films with kit like this....i'm inspired.
