Taking Still Pictures while Riding.....

[Spanky]

I use a little cannon autofocus. It's small enough to stay in the pocket, point and shoot.http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2105460,00.asp

I have a small Digital that I picked up for 25 bucks that I snap pictures while riding down the road. Usually with my Left hand. If it drops then its no big loss. Been using it for thousands of Photos Haven't dropped it yet. When I stop I usually pull out the Nikon DX5100 or the Full Frame. As for the other comments, You know what they say about Opinions.............To each his own....Oh Yea I've been a Photographer many years, not that it matters...............Dickie

Just got back from a trip to British Columbia and saw some AWESOME scenery. Because I'm the rider and have no passenger......has anyone figured out a way to take still (digital) pictures while riding? We went down some great roads along rivers and in canyons I would have loved to have some pictures of without stopping every mile or so.......if anyone has figured out a way I would appreciate a post!

Ride Safe!!

There is. With the right editing software you can get nice stills from a video capture camera's hours of footage. It requires very little knowledge and a little trial and error with the application you use. Are they going to be high quality for commercial reproduction? Likely no, but if the subject matter is interesting, maybe. Definitely stills from today's high quality video will produce something that you can scrapbook, print out or share.

For the the great must have vistas for example, you really should take your time off the bike.

I do as someone has already said. I have a neck strap on a small digital camera. Just raise up my left arm and click away. I had to stop and get a larger memory card
