About the 20th F-Type I've seen this week and about the 50th one in total.

 


Watch on YouTube, and in 1080p, feedback is important.

This is a small test video from my trip to Monaco. Revolving around a very pretty Porsche 356 Speedster. I have plans to open a new YouTube channel, and become an avid Carspotter, since I have nothing else to do, and enjoy seeing fancy cars.

The reason its a test video is because I'm trying to get the transitions right between scenes, can you tell me if it feels okay, same goes with audio transitions. I think I may have made them a bit long, but I'm not sure.

The main issue I think I need help / and or assistance with, are the jagged edges when viewing from monitors of a low size / resolution. When in full screen, I don't get any problems, however, on a smaller screened computer, even in 1080p full there are massive screen jagged errors. I believe it is because I have made the resolution to high, as not every monitor is 1920x1080. Though I would certainly like to have a respectable quality while making it more watchable in HD for other computers. Can somebody with a smaller screen give me some feedback on whether the screen jags are noticeable in both 720p and 1080p.

Feedback on the matter is important. The general settings are important because they will be applied to every video in the near future, its good to get it right the first time.

Great video! The camera is a little shaky, but you'll improve the more practice you get with videos. I watched the video on my iPad and the video quality looked fine to me, no jagged edges.
I make a lot of videos for car spotting and Cars & Coffee events and you can see how my quality has improved with just some practice. Its far from professional, but I feel that my videos are decent. My channel is WinVideos8 if you want to check it out.
Thanks for sharing!
 
Sweetness!

And caught a Rolls (Corniche?) today. Spotting still sucks since it's winter and there's salt on the roads...


Actually saw something decent, too, surprised the heck out of me, but didn't get a pic was so unsure... just a Quattroporte, but still.

And, maybe not thread-worthy, but something about this little del Sol (the odd hubcaps?) made me happy to see it next to my workplace.

I'm using a Samsung R580 laptop, with 1366x768 screen. Runs and looks perfect!👍

The picture transitions feel good, they're just as long as they should be, maybe a tiny bit too short.:)

The sound transitions are too short for me, I think I can hear there are short moments of 'nothing' between the ending of one sound clip and the beginning of another.
But that's just me, I think I just like when the two blend with each other for a tiny-short time.

Plus, man that's one gorgeous car :drool:

Sure, wasn't set up. that's why it's all out of focus or all blurred , or too bright, or too dark... dude, it's perfect. The car ain't bad either.

White Nissan GTR, could not catch up to it to take a pic.

Not that the driver was speeding, but I was at the lights and saw it drive by.
 
Saw an '00 '01 WRX STI (quite rare in my country) yesterday parked close to where I live,had some Ricy features such as an obnoxious sound system with the dreaded reggeaton:yuck:.It was silver,didn't take a picture cause I don't carry cameras and it was near but it immediately left after I came back so no picture :(
 
My phone is of the crappy variation and I don't carry cameras,plus the car left before I would get home and I wasn't going to pull out an invisible camera to take a picture of a car that was about to leave.Neither was I gonna rush home to get an invisible camera either (don't have cameras:().

At my local Chevrolet dealer who once in a while has a very special car for sale. Once they had a 300C Dub Edition for sale.
 
Chevelle? With huge rims.

911 Turbo. (note: Thanks, camera, for focusing on the mirrors and not the car! Oh well, bad pic is better than no pic)

I hate when such basic cameras do that. Point and shoot ones annoy me like crazy, but it's all I have. :mad:

In Pennsylvania right now for Vietnamese New Year with my mom's side of the family. Went out to Whole Foods to supply some bread for the dinner and spotted this lovely M3 Sedan. Love those wheels! :D
