Jaguars at Shelsley Yesterday

[XJ13]

Hi - I am still grinning having spent a superb day watching a selection of notable Jaguars go up the hill at Shelsley and thought I would capture some of the day's highlights using my new toy (a dinky little camcorder that fits in the palm of my hand).

I did get some wry looks from the "professional" cameramen with their lenses that seemed to reach across to the other side of the track but I managed to capture something they couldn't - the SOUNDS of these wonderful straight-six engines!

Please excuse my amateurish first effort - I can only improve with practice!

thanks for the great video! The sounds were great and that camcorder of yours is very impressive! The XJ13, one of the most beautiful cars ever made..

well I'm normally quite critical of videos and photos especially the professional ones but yours is a splendid first go with your camera

I was sold by the opening bars of Hocus Pocus(?) (reprises were too short)

just a little more practice with camera angles, editing and soundtrack overlay, stills are a bit stilted

it had an almost documentary feel

you are to be thoroughly congratulated on the results regarless of the equipment and experience and justifiably proud of your 'film', very well done
