Hard-drive based camcorder
Has anyone tried recording their track footage using a hard-drive based camcorder? A friend is looking to use a Sony SR-DCR62 mounted to the rollbar, but I don't know how vibrations / forces will affect the recording ability. Has anyone broken a harddrive camcorder doing this?

I have the sony DCR-SR82 and it shuts off every time in the pits before I even get on track... I can't figure out how to fix it

Need to use tapes or SD cards. Hard drives generally can't take the vibration.

Hi end units can. The low end HD cams also have a problem with speed. Meaning if the image being captured is moving too fast, the video playback will become blurred and even start skipping.
