Throttled Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 In the latest series of the Motorbike Show, when Henry Cole rides that episode's bike on that week's route, there must be a camera attached to the front of the bike. It moves around as if it is a drone, but there is no way a drone could fly so close to the bike. Has anyone got any idea what the camera is? The effect is amazing.

dynax Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Probably a 360 camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorky Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I thought it was filmed from a soft top camera car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 The camera cars are usually either a range rover or discovery, the on bike stuff will be a 360 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can't be, as sometimes the camera pans round from facing Henry Cole to facing forward and there is no vehicle there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throttled Posted August 31, 2021 Author Share Posted August 31, 2021 Hopefully we will have a rally next year and I plan to get a camera for the ride out. That will look amazing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charliepaul2785 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 So what is the camera mounted on ? The handlebars ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video above shows the various ways that blogger mounts the camera. It is mounted on a pole and sometimes he shoves it down the back of his jacket, or he sits on it!

jedibiker Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 the 360 is nuts., you simply choose the angle of shots when editing. a nut job on youtube called maxwrist uses one alot. baffled me at first how he can overtake a bike or police car then pan the camera to it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
