Pictures and Video

Pictures and video really add a lot to a site’s content…especially one that can be as visual as mountain biking. To improve this site’s performance in that area, I have made some investments that you will see the changes from this week.

With the release of the Nikon D90ir?t=mounbikiby198 20&l=as2&o=1&a=B001ENOZY4, there have been blowouts on the Nikon D80 D-SLRir?t=mounbikiby198 20&l=as2&o=1&a=B000HGIWN4. I picked one up for a deal and with the combination of Adobe Photoshop CS3ir?t=mounbikiby198 20&l=as2&o=1&a=B000NDIBYG and Adobe Lightroom 2ir?t=mounbikiby198 20&l=as2&o=1&a=B0018VH8S2…the photos on this site should look much better. I have also enlisted the help of some friends that are incredible photographers.

GoPro 5mp Wide Angle Cameras

We struck up a deal with Hero to feature their GoPro cameras for all of the video on MTB by 198. Once those arrive, there will be a ton of video footage including helmet and bike mounted shots.
