Go-Pro users???
 
For anyone using the suction cup mount, how do you eliminate the side to side movement while going thru somewhat choppy waters? Not sure if it is even possible to eliminate completely, but each video I shot this past weekend and a few before, had a lot of shakey footage! :lolhit:

I can't get rid of the shakiness either, but when I upload it to Youtube it says "We detect that your video is shaky. Want us to fix it?? I say yes and things come out OK. The camera was definitely shaking on the deck in this video:

Thats not bad at all! If I could only find that program that youtube uses to eliminate the shakes, then I would be good lol. Even now when I place the suction on my desk, there is a lot of play in it

I shot some footage at the Smith Mountain Poker Run and mine kept fogging up after 4-5 minutes of running. What can I do about this problem? After each card stop it was clear but again after 4-5 minutes running it fogged up again. I had it mounted on the windshield facing out.

Go pro sells anti-fog inserts to keep the camera from doing that. Just go to there'd website under accessories. For me, the stabilization isn't isn't a big issue. I use the suction cup as well but over memorial day weekend, I zip tied it to my nav light up high and as a result go a great angle. You can check out my videos using the go pro on YouTube.

That is a great angle and a great video. The ending is pretty funny. Good stuff!

After the vid is done uploading, it asks if you want to eliminate the shakes(top right of the video). Maybe Youtube isn't thinking your vids are shaky...I dunno.
