Another test. This time, the video we shot yesterday, taking the Roadtrek to the White Tank Mountain Regional Park. This was a test for editing two different cameras and the wireless mics. Not ready for "Prime Time," but it is a proof of concept that this will work. The toughest part of this project was syncing the audio with the video... life would be SO much easier if I could connect two DJI mics with the DJI Action 4 Camera. But, noooooo.
Joan hasn't seen this video, yet, but she lived it, and said, "This would be the most boring video for anyone but us to watch." And that is why the only place you can see this video is through the link on this blog post...
This is considered "unlisted" on my YouTube channel. There will come a time when we actually go somewhere with the van (hey, stuff comes up) and I will be ready to get some (hopefully) more interesting video.
If you click on this video link within the next hour or so (it's 5:17 pm Mountain Standard Time here), it will be more compressed than usual - YouTube is taking its time to process it up to HD. On the bright side, it only took a few minutes to upload in this compressed state.
In the meantime, I have to say that I really enjoy driving the van. It isn't fast or sporty, but I really like the driving perspective... and it rides a lot better than the Aspect.

Glad to see you getting out and about and playing with the new gear. The in-laws used to do day hikes in the White Tanks and South Mountain all the time, back when they could. We went a couple of times to South Mountain, but I don't recall hiking the White Tanks. At that time we were visiting Sun City from Alaska and sometimes did not have extra energy for such outings during a week long trip. I recall driving on Loop 303 when it first opened (and not even all segments were open then, but enough to get where we wanted).
It is astounding to see the growth of building and traffic in the Valley.
Hi Earl - thanks; yeah, we are practicing with the new gear, mostly wanting to see how it all works while traveling in the van. If I could figure out a way to use the 2 mics with the Action 4 camera, the editing would go much faster. I'm still working on it. The Sony a6700 is all I hoped it would be.
It has been a year since we've driven in the far west side of the Valley - the growth is startling!
