My bicycle commute to work in Tokyo. Taken on my new Panasonic HX-A100 wearable camera.

The guy at 6:25 ought to be allowed to ride in the middle of the road, he is faster than the cars on the lane to the right, and certainly not slowing down traffic :-)

Come and commute on a bicycle here in the capital of Indonesia and you'll find constant chaos and unpredictability. You'd find the Japanese traffic horribly more polite.

Hey MrMysterio, thanks for watching. Bike commuting is great. I'd like to do it every day, but I don't. Summer is coming here in Tokyo and the temperature and humidity are going up. I'm arriving at the office a sweating, dehydrated mess! I'm afraid it maybe time to get back on the air conditioned trains...

Not bad. Haven't used it so much, but I'm pretty happy with it. The hands free is aspect is great. I'm sometimes not sure if it is videoing horizontal. The head band mount gets uncomfortable after a while - 40 minutes and my ear was sore, maybe needs some padding, maybe just me. Haven't tried it while running yet - I'm hoping it will be fairly steady. I think it has a lot of applications I haven't thought of yet.

What do you think about the performance of the Panasonic?

Thanks!

That's right, Tobu Nerima. Do you know this area? Or perhaps you could work out my route - near Tobu Nerima station to KawagoeKaido (route 254), change onto YamateDori, then up that hill from Nakanosakue. Takes me about 50 minutes, door-to-door, depending on the traffic and the lights. But it's getting hotter now, even at 6:20am, and rainy season coming, so I will probably give up and get back on the Yamanote....

Thanks! I try not to go too fast, but sometimes I like to push it a bit... I checked out some of the TV Shinjuku videos - great! I'll be watching more.
