Two clips of my stroke

Shot pool with my Grandson and his GF yesterday. Coin op table in a bowling alley.

I had my new Casio camera with me, so had him make clips of us shooting. He happened to catch one of my stroke from the back. First time I'd seen myself shoot, and it looked pretty good. I recorded a portion in slo mo off the TV and put it up as well.

Don't know why they take so long to load on my computer.

It took forever to load the first one and it was choppy no matter how many times I played it so it was impossible to see the stroke. I saw you lined up and then by the next frame it showed the ball had already been pocketed.

The second one was fine. Looks like a nice fluid stroke to me although you need to go tucked or untucked with that t-shirt...not both. :)

Although it will compromise some quality, why don't you convert the vids to .mpg? They will upload faster, will be compatible with the common hosting services (like youtube), and will download faster.

100+ MB .mov files can be troublesome as you are finding out.
 
Ok, I have some errands to do, will try to reformat later this afternoon.

I tuck with one hand, shoot with the other.
 
ok, converted the longer one to MP4.

5MB of code if I click on it. Opened the URL in quicktime and it kinda plays. Missing quite a bit. Same thing happened when I previewed it in MPEGStreamclip's converter. arg. oh well, nohing to see, move along.
