Tank mounted Camera and windshield config
I am in the market for a new windscreen, and will be buying a tank mount for my video camera.
I need to know if a dark smoke, or a light smoke is too dark for the camera to see anything.
I will go clear if I need too, but like the look better of the dark smoke.
Any other ideas appriciated too of course.
I saw http://www.handsfreedirect.com/dsr100.html this but I dont know how I would convince the wife why I need ANOTHER video camera... since I already own a MINI DV and soon will own a 30 gig HDD.

Anything other than clear does not work that well . After putting the dark smoked sheild I rigged it to fit in the fake air duct on the right side . Works ok , Just not as well as seeing the tach and speedo on board IMHO .
