Default short vid of Willys creek crossing

I got new editing software so I thought I'd give it a try. I'm not too impressed, there's a total loss of fidelity. The RAW file looks great but after it gets edited the HD is lost. I don't know what I'm not doing right.

Thank You. The Jeep is a plastic Hasbro Jeep from 2001, made for a 12" tall G.I.Joe action figure.

Find a body and get busy! You won't have this much fun with anything else.

I wish I could show you how clear the RAW file is when I play it back on my laptop, it looks like I'm back in the woods filming instead of watching on the screen. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. The software is Arcsoft 'Stars' so it supports the .MOV file that my PlaySport captures in.

X2 The size and weight of these 1/6th scale Jeeps ramp up the realism factor tenfold when compared to 1/10th scale. The bigger and heavier you get the more realistically it will behave, just due to natural laws of physics.

The first video I saw of 1/6th scale Jeeps fooled me for a minute, I thought they were real until the camera got closer. Because they were just a bit more wiggly, bouncy, body-rolly, than a 1/10th scale rig could ever be. Once I realized what I was looking at it sent me on an internet search. An hour later I knew I had to build one.

Orange Jeep is looking ready for action. Hopefully we can get some trail running in this weekend!

I'm happy with the way the Swampers are staying on the steel wheels, between them and the foams I made, the Jeep has never handled this well before and I haven't had a single thermal shutdown this summer, so I think I have the overheating issue solved. The orange Jeep is as ready as it can be. Be sure to bring your video camera!

Whatever trouble it was, it was worth it. They look really good.

I'll bring my little Sony camera and a tripod. I suck at editing though...
