A run from Kent to near Aberdeen.

Contour HD camera mounted via a sucker mount onto the inside of the windscreen, with it set to capture a picture every three seconds.

It was a ten hour journey, so I had 11,000 odd pictures to deal with at the end of the journey.

Luckily the Contour can be powered from 12V so was never going to be short of power, it also had a 32Gb card installed and used about 5.5Gb of storage.

Nice watched about 30 secs of it, think you should slow it down a bit its far to fast, its really just a bit to much of nothing, change the frame rate everything's flying past at like 200MPH, slow it down so we can appreciate it :thumbs:
 
Thanks for the comments folks.

That's really impressive, how long did it take to crunch all of the photos into the video?

Can't remember to be honest - probably a couple of glasses of wine if you're looking for a random time. Quite quickly when all you're doing is selecting 1000 images in a folder and letting the software do it's thing, multiply that by 11 and you're done.

I wanted it to be exactly as it would be if I was shooting video images based on photo images - so it's 25 pictures to a second, 1 and a half minutes of pictures to one second, hence 10 hours into 7 minutes. I also didn't want it to be too long and was thinking that 7 minutes was just about right - especially when it equates to doing the journey at 5,100 MPH :)
