Default Testing my new video camera

Hey guys, I just bought a new Contour Roam2 video camera and I got to play with it Saturday while testing the car. If you are looking for one they are cheaper than the Go-Pro or the Replay. This is not a sales pitch, just thought I would share my experience. I saw something I have been doing without even realizing it. I jerk the wheel to the left slightly every time I swap feet. ops: ops: ops:

That’s a solid deal for the Contour Roam2, especially since you get pretty decent video out of it. I do the same thing with reviewing my driving footage, noticed little habits I would never have picked up on if I wasn’t watching myself on camera. Makes a big difference if you’re looking to improve or just catch funny stuff you do behind the wheel.

If you ever want to edit or tweak your footage, or even just play around with adding effects and trimming out boring sections, movavi makes it really easy. I found it handy even when I had zero video editing experience.
