I recently started a thread regarding a good camera for from-boat recording of a wakeboarder. I purchased the Kodak Playsport and quickly found out that just because a camera touts HD, all that guarantees is large files, not necessarily quality image/movement etc. (I'm not knocking the camera, for the price it's well worth it, just not for what I want to do.)
When in the store, looking at other options, it was clear I have no idea what to look for because they don't show you sample videos in store, especially in high movement situations.
I'd like to see how many examples of wakeboarding footage we can get here from as many different cameras as possible. I assume there's a ton if $500+ cameras that can do well so I'd like to reduce it to those that are less than $500 for the average consumer cameras.
To participate myself, once I get them online, I'll post an example from the playsport ZX5 and also from an Olympus 1050SW (relatively similar in quality) tomorrow or so.
Show us your goods!
