Hi Mike,
Sorry for the delay, I did shoot some video of your lift-off, just got
my album online today. I had just bought an Olympus SP-100 last week and was
learning how to use the Dot Sight feature, so most of what I shot this launch
was videos and I had mixed success tracking some of the rockets in-air, but
that camera sure makes it easier than it would normally be under a high zoom
(the problem was more whether *I* could see the rocket or not). I think I just
need some more practice. =) I lost yours as it was going up, turns out the
camera was still seeing it until it went off-frame.
Anyway, my album for Saturday's launch is up at
<https://plus.google.com/photos/115304675973056460933/albums/6119865641332277185>,
the video of your flight is just after the altimeter graph for my first
flight. I also got two shots of yours coming down, one with the power lines in
the way. =P The Flash video Google+ shows in the album is pretty compressed I
think, but the original (672MB) 1080p/60 video is available if you want it
under the "More" -> "Download video" link at the top of the page when you have
the video up[*].
Congrats again on the L3! - Will
[*] On my Mac at least, it downloaded as a ".mov.mp4", and QuickTime played the
downloaded file with no audio. Once I removed the extra .mp4 suffix and
re-opened it the audio was fine.
