TractionMan goes Geocaching!
Geocaching is another hobby mine. So I brought the camcorder on a little cache hunt last week right after work. With the goal of finding a particular cache called "Double bridge" that I've been wanting to find for a while. It's not a difficult one, just hidden in an odd but fun place. Yeah, yeah I know, I'm not a hardcore geocacher. :)
Anyway, don't worry about spoilers in the video. I won't show the actual hiding spot of the cache.
If you're curious about geocaching, just visit www.geocaching.com and find out all about it.

Panasonic HDC SD90 - Random Test Footage!
Have to admit that I've been a bit lazy with the video editing lately. But here it is at last, the random test footage video, shot with the Panasonic HDC SD90, all shot in 1080p mode. Not an extensive test video, just a few quick test shots slapped together to see the video quality of this nice camcorder. Had to slow down a couple of clips because they were too short. Most was shot in automatic mode as well. I've shot a bit more since this footage though and so far I'm very happy with it. Great camera for the money in my opinion.

Unboxing the Panasonic HDC SD90!
Got my new camcorder quite a few weeks ago, but I havn't had time to edit this video until now, sorry about the delay.
Have never really understood the purpose of making "unboxing videos" so I thought I'd make one myself just for the hell of it. Don't get me wrong, I'm not bashing all you folks who make them. After all, making videos is supposed to be fun, so I guess it really doesn't matter what they're about. And yes, I had fun making this video. Mission accomplished!
Have a nice day!

Spring flowers in the garden!
Ah! Nice weather at last. Got my camera and macro lens out to explore the garden. Didn't bring my tripod this time so these pics were all hand held. Not easy to shoot macro hand held with the narrow depth of field that comes with it. Had fun though and that's what's important.

Murphy's Effing Law!
When I decided to start making videos again, I got struck by Murphy's law. Something just HAD to go wrong. Take a look at this clip to see what that was. However, it's not all bad news, it actually brought something good with it. That's also in the clip...
Go ahead watch it! Unless you don't want to of course. I'm not forcing you to watch it. Oh well, you do as you please.

Guess what?
This sad excuse of a blog is about to come alive again. So is my YouTube channel, although it's a slow progress at the moment. Please be patient, here will be videos very, very soon.
