Been scared to try a new one in case its not as good as the old one lol. The EXR is bloody brilliant, does high speed video @ 330 fps...

Moves well, gear is perfect for the 60-100 dash :) Around 7-8 seconds, difficult to tell..

[QUOTE=stephenevans99;682904]Good effort Mr P......on the same runway that evening: Image[/QUOTE] Is that yours? Hell of an effort, great top speed for a D5 :)

I bought another camera today, Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ200 will see how I get on with it and then decide wether to keep it or sell it on (got it at a great price).

Thats quicker than mine for sure.

Post 682931 by M-R-P on 2014-01-22 21:52:05

I timed it at just over 7 seconds but I'd need to get it on a video manager to be sure. Felt quick tho lol.

[QUOTE=WOODY T5;682920]thats quicker then frankies andy[/QUOTE] Lol, mine was quicker than that before my engine build ;)

The LK box's long gears definitely help with the time. I reckon half a second at least, saved by not changing gear.
