Description: Footage from a T-38 flight over Northern California. This flight hit the coast line near Fort Bragg and turned in-land at the Golden Gate Bridge. Only two video camera's were allowed on-board... Contour and Panasonic.... this is largely due to size and lack of moving parts (preventing "gimbal") reducing risk to the aircraft during pitch, roll or yaw. Note: This footage was down res'd in post production as a result of stabilization, zoom and centering of the shots...

So not all of the footage was shot with the ContourHD...??
Looks like the bulk of the footage was with the Panasonic. Still a nice film but doesn't show the strengths of the ContourHD.
Yeah...my thoughts too. If potential customers are looking at this footage they might get some wrong perceptions.
Contour was "B" roll footage. With post production work most of the Contour attributes are minimized. With that Contour shot 21% of this footage. We could have used more except for battery failure somewhere between 4-6 G's... simply lost contact and shut down.... the current file was lost when it shut down.
This is sweet, I just want to hear the Top Gun soundtrack now.
Highway to the Danger ZONE!
Great view! Don't mind the others, they are just afraid you have the better vid :P
Like the bridge thingy :)
