70. Me Right Now Testing my Sanyo Xacti Wireless Lambo…
2 years ago
Love shots from difficult different camerapositions. Getting impossible remarcable memorable point of views. The little HD Sanyo Xacti camcorders are ideal for this. Finally found the ideal Chassis on airfilled and dampered wheels. It has special horizontally-mounted front dampers. The stunning 1/12 scale model Lamborghini Countach. More info on Global-DVC.org Also see my other tests with the other trick the "Jancam" (vimeo.com/1153750)

If needed this is a good Deshaker voor Vegas vimeo.com/3719581 or google Mercalli. (We didn't use any of these as floor was smooth)

    I also liked the spring suspension idea. I need to shell out some $ for the fisheye. (Top of my shopping list).
  • Jan van der Meer plus 2 years ago
    Yes its spring time now!
  • Olaf Henze plus 2 years ago
    @ ross:
    check out the 0.3x raynox hd3032 semi-fisheye, i can highly recommend it for the xactis.

    Just as everyone in Cleveland used to do at the time I used to watch Ghoulardi. We all watched him religiously best we could. He was great but he had the same problem. He would continually be pressing on his mustache and his beard. It was always falling off. Use white glue. It's non-toxic.

    Do it, make it happen, and you'll be the first to outfit a two legged, fiercely menacing, albeit lilliputian, cyclops, with a steady-cam. A word of advice though, you may need to utilize a midget camera, i.e. one that is not as large as the Xacti HD2000. In any case, as always, good luck with your quest! Give that cyclops a midget Xacti with a Century wide if that is what you have got cooking for your next project and away you go! ...never mind the mustache.

    Great minds think alike, I saw something ages ago on a doc' about film makers and the inventions they came up with for filming. I thought I'd try using a bigger remote car
    but I wasn't sure how to go about mounting the camera?.
    Your setup is excellent and you have spurred me on to do something about my setup :))))
    Thanks for another Great vid Mate :))

    Hello, very good idea, Jan. I want to see as it works in the street.
    It would not be a bad idea in the maritime walk of your video "Jancam in action with Sanyo Xacti HD1000" with the gorilla pod ( vision eyeborg ).

    Excuse me for my poor english, greetings

  • Spudgun 2 years ago

    Jan - You also have a great wife!!! My wife is awesome as well - but she'll never do this for me, and if she did - she'll kill me if I posted here!

    How did you manage to get her to do this???

    A haa!!!! Just learned your trick!!! (By reading more of your Vimeo page) - Your wife is co-producer and knows a lot about video! That clears up everything up for me!!

    :-) Awesome work friend!!!
