I am on a Mark Simiola's team that runs Harleys. I help do what ever needs to be done, but I like to film and edit. I have a Sony 4k ax-100 that films great. A nikon aw120. 3 sony action cameras a hdr-15, 30? and the newer one. I had a drift action camera, but it broke on a harley drag bike. The sony ones are tuff. I also like to velcro one on my helmet for rides. I have Sony Movie Studio to edit. I am also on Jim Doyle's race team. Jim is a big player, I think he placed 6th or something this year overall. I ride, got a decent bike that's fun and comfortable. I would like to go down the track, but dont want to break my bike or me lol. I'd rather film and help out. So you did film for a living? what did you film ? You sure have good equipment. I had a good nikon with a nice lens, but I carry so much other stuff, and shots i take mostly for you tube and dvd's for film, really was overkill and gf borrowed it lol. I also have 2 good video tripods, and 1 dolly for them. Nothing like filming right next to a 1,000 hp nitro bike. It's scary when they blow the motor. Really loud. Just them cracking the thottle makes everyone jump. this film shows Jim cracking the throttle. Watch the peeps jump. it cant be helped, unless you have ear plugs in. guess who had ear plugs in the film. You can feel the air pressure from the motor as well.Nicely done. I like the folks each getting on the seat near the end.
When you say 2 teams, are you actually a racer or crew of the bikes? Or video teams?
What equipment are you using? I use Sony PMW-300, EX1's, Redbox, Hitachi, Canon and most the other kitchen sink. Steadycam, Osmo and drones. Retired broadcast camera amongst other things.
