Are you running a GoPro on the chesty mount? If so try flipping the camera upside down and filming that way on the chesty. It will bring it right up above the bars instead of aiming it down towards your down tube so much. Remember to go through your settings and switch it to the ups setting instead of the upd.

for best vids i find that if you run her in 920p, it's the longest video angle that the camera has, also i run her upside down with the lcd backpack to get the best shots, remember to hit the settings menu and switch it to UPd, when you exit the menu the video icon should be flashing if the video icon doenst flash youll have to flip it on your editing software at home ( which is nbd most editors have it), then if you dont have a lcd backpack (which makes a nice christmas present from the parents Wink only about 100cdn at your lbs or local sports store ) you can just do laps of your street to find the best angle ( what i did before the lcd backpack haha) and she should come out something like this, minus the random fall and the black strap swaying to and fro, my other vids dont have that.

Surely the best videos are at 1080p? And I know about flipping the camera now. I could ge tthe LDC back but that just wastes more battery. If I had another battery I might consider getting the screen. I know its helpfully but dont really want it.

For some reason, the angle of view of the 1080p setting is not as wide as 960p. So the 1080p setting will look much more "zoomed-in". With 960p you get a great 170 degree wide angle view, so you can see all the important elements like the bars, front wheel, arms etc.

Ahh yeah I see what you mean. I was trying the 720p setting so I could try out the slow-mo settings. But I am currently waiting for a faster running computer because my laptop wont run 1080p with out dieing.

the 720p 60fps setting is good too. It is quite wide, but not as wide as 960p. It's also widescreen, unlike the 4:3 of 960p. Oh, and 1080p is also widescreen. For me, 960p and 720p 60fps are the way to go.
