Posted this in the other thread, was told to copy it here... so here you go 
I feel like this will get lost in the corner.gif 'ing... BUT
i will be doing this for the Dragon, and i think its a GREAT deal if one doesn't want to spend $200 on a video camera as of right now (like me...just spend tons of money on the car.. need to save before i can get anything else haha)

time to get some interest goingOne thing I want to discuss is how some of you are going about your audio recording - specifically what methods to avoid wind noise? Unfortunately my otherwise nice miniDV cam doesn't have a mic input, so I'm forced to tape microphone muff (as in, used on a stage mic) over the mic which doesn't have great results.
Anyone else have any goals for our meet?
I will be there, with my camera and lots of lenses, and you guys can play with any camera equipment you like (1DsIII and L glass) and any advice you seek on gear or anything in general is grade A 100% hormone free.
Awesome !!! Read many, many of your posts on the Photo Forum... Will be an honor to have your expertise available to us !!!
Hopefully this very thread will prove to be a perfect place to make the following request: Assuming my father, Jerry, comes with me to this year's WTD...I would be extremely grateful to have folks pass along to me any candid photos they might take of me with my dad over the weekend.
PS. Dang!
Where are all my s2ki photo albums

or, bring a memory card, find me, and I'll let you take mine for a run...just don't run off with it...
i'm going to be interested in seeing where people mount the gopro when shooting video... this is my first run with it on the car so i'll be curious to see all the various shots...
