Susten and Grimsel Pass
Hi guys, thanks for all your feedback!
I invested a bit more in gear. I bought a Sony X3000 Action Cam. It has:
Thanks to moveswiftly and Fabspeed John, I bought a pair of Sony ECM-DS70P microphones, which I could use with the Sony Action Cam. I made a little windscreen from cotton wool to fight wind noise, and mounted it above the exhaust. It sounds incredible
I can hear some clipping, so next time I'll probably move it a bit further away.
To test my new setup, I headed over to the Susten Pass. I managed to record the clouds rising from the valley and making their way up the mountains. Later, I drove to the Grimsel Pass, since it was so close. What an amazing way to spend a Sunday!
Check out the new video
I would love to get your opinion on it, especially on areas where I should improve:

- amazing optical stabilization even in 4K (GoPro maxes out at 2.7K)
- great image quality
- a remote control with live view
- a microphone port (Hero 5 requires expensive and clunky adapter which provides awful sound quality)
- great battery life

Wow, I'm pretty sure that a race track in Gran Turismo 4. I got nervous watching you pass cars heading in the opposite direction with roads that look super narrow. Great video - its nice to such awesome roads!

Great stuff.
I went thru there a couple of weeks ago on a motorcycle.
Foggy and some light drizzle, but I was proud to see a Boxster with the roof down when it was just fog and no rain!
Really enjoyed the roads on the bike, but also thought I'd love to have my Spyder here.
