You'll probably find it already in its little slot (unscrew the cap to get to the "controls")

No m8 I looked there first up (definitely no card) will tell "Nancy" I got camera but no card  :P

 :goodjob: Tasmania looks more beautiful, video after video - so does your commentary :mrgreen:
Really enjoyed the whole trip. Also reminded me that... i've never been there or at a similar place.
Villages and even the towns there are just like the green hills that surrounds them: relaxing but with interesting curves.
Great view that pops out at 5:52!


great vid dazz.   :brilliant:   i actually watched it twice.   :mrgreen:
Did you have difficulties spotting the red hatch, Steve? (actually i did by the 3rd time) :lol:


P.S. Sorry for that camera Dazz, but you couldn't read a more funny package contents at A$35...

Glad you liked the Video Babis I enjoy seeing yours and other members vids as well (Much cheaper than airfares)  :lol:

I'll have to check out 5:52 ...

Don't think the camera people use the same good translator as you do!!

I'm having trouble securing the camera to the dash.
Masking tape, duct tape and blutac have all failed. They don't stick to the dash which I try to keep clean and protected.

Any other suggestions.

My latest, which seems to be OK is putting the camera on a folded hand towel (for height and insulation from bumps) on the dash top storage compartment and opening the lid then running a large elastic band around the whole thing and closing it again.

Actually this seems to work rather well. :cool: :goodjob:

I use Sticky velcro dots .. just use the spiky ones if you have a dashmat or both types if you don't  :goodjob:

I've also thought of using a big rubberband or shoelace to attach the camera to the passenger head rest if no passenger in the car (for a different perspective)  :D

Velcro won't stick to the dashboard either.

And Shambles, the camera's too heavy for that. It's a fairly large Fuji digital. Not a special lightweight model.

I'll take a mobile phone pic of the set up next time I have it in the car.

Hi Trev. In understand why you say the cameras too heavy for a suction mount, but the one that came with my camera has a lever that forces the suction cup to grip the glass incredibly hard - no chance of any movement or dislodgement. Just a thought...
