Haha thats cool!!

Snow looks good as well, suppose it could only have been good at that altitude given all the snow and cold weather in the Alps recently!

Ellistine,
What model do you have! Great video.

I bought the Samsun Sports cam which is the size of a cigar. Not very happy with it. I do not get same quality as you!

Also it is advertised as Mac/IBM platforms. Quess what,,, not applicable on Mac!

What resolution do you have?

What battery life do you have?

Can you send me via email or download the original! I can make you a DVD with music and titles!

Youtube downsamples the video quite a lot so what you're seeing is nowhere near as good quality as the original.

The camera is a Samsung Miniket VP-X300L. You get about an hour of battery life and it records to SD cards.

I've read on various sites about Mac problems with this camera too. You can get around them but it's a bit of a fiddle.

Pavel, I'll PM you a link so you can download the full-res version.
