GH1 torture at the Velodrome

GH1 just went up a few notches in my book, took a tremendous amount of rattle while mounted on the bike ( that track is very bumpy) hit the ground one (my heart rate went up for a moment there) but it survived! everything is fine.

grain and steep curves added for the gritty look
hope you enjoy!

thanks guys. used a big studio clamp, rattled loose after a lap, had it crazy tight, love the 7-14mm awesome lens, the only bummer no filter thread....
 
Very cool, Mike.

Coincidentally, there's a velodrome track just down the street from my house:

Not that there's any chance of my precious GH1 getting anywhere near it except safely on the sidelines. :-)

(Yes: Alpenrose is a commercial dairy with a velodrome. And a world-class softball stadium. And a Quarter Midget Racing track. And a pipe organ. And a very funky miniature old-West town. And more. I've been meaning to shoot some footage there soon ... it's a really cool & strange place.)

Again, nice job Mike!
