Mounting this

http://www.usa.canon.com/app/images/EOS_2009/7D/profile/7d_586x225.jpg

would look weird images/smilies/lol.gif


Just to put recording HD onto flash memory into perspective, let's take http://www.canon.co.uk/For_Home/Prod..._S11/index.asp as an example.
In its highest video quality settings (1920x1080) it claims to use 24mbps - which sounds about right.
It has 64GB built-in memory, not accounting for audio or overhead that would be enough for just over six hours of recording.
Add a 32GB SDHC card and you're at nine hours.
If they're instead shooting at 1440x1080 then the highest available quality is using 12mbps resulting in twelve (eighteen with SDHC addon) hours of continuous recording.
I'd say that's enough. Back in the day they managed with tapes, those weren't infinitely long.

No it wouldn't. Get some decent suction cups, or a Gorillapod for Aerial Atoms/Rollcages, and stick it on there upside down. Rotate the video in post and you're done.

Okay, it would look weird. But who cares? The programme would look so much better for it.

Would be a waste as well. HD is using roughly 2 million pixels, I fail to see the point of a 19 (18) million pixel sensor.

Like the torque in the SL65AMG Black. But its fun^^. "More is better."
Well, just kidding. It would be a waste at all. And there are some differences between the sensor in the Canon and the sensors in a FullHD-vid-cam, i guess. So the vid-cam should be able to catch the pictures in motion better than the Canon, but im not quite sure.

What makes everyone think the in-car footage is shot in SD anyway?

http://thumb.phyrefile.com/n/na/narf/2009/11/19/vlcsnap-2009-11-20-00h33m30s146.png

Yes, the image quality may (see what I did there, James? images/smilies/lmao.gif) be lower than the regular outside shot quality. Is it SD? I doubt it.

I relented and installed CCCP. I was resistant 'cause the last time I used one of those kinda things, it totally fucked up playback. CCCP is actually awesome now.

Anyway, TS files are now working in MPCHC for me (yay!) and here's a side by side. I think the files are literally identical, except for the bumper ads on the beginning and end of one.
