" Many of us have been enthralled to watch videos shot on race cars. However, anyone who has tried doing this will know that setting a camera up and getting the right angle is often difficult. Plus, when they are mounted and out of reach it&amp;#039;s difficult to turn them on and off, and one usually ends up with way too much footage that needs edited out, wasted battery life and full memory cards. Drift Innovation has introduced a new camera called the Drift HD Ghost that overcomes several of these problems. It includes Wi-Fi, so an included remote can be used to change functions and operate the camera from up to 30 feet away. You will also be able to operate it and watch the video on a smart phone with an upcoming app.  One of the neatest features of the new camera is the Flashback video/tag loop mode. Video can be continuously recorded but it will only be saved when the operator tags it and then the last five minutes are saved to the storage card. It&amp;#039;s a good way to cut down on the often-unnecessary boring boring parts leading up to a hero shot or sequence. If you&amp;#039;ve not heard of Drift before it&amp;#039;s because it is a UK-based company. Judging from video clips on their website several popular race teams around the world use Drift cameras. There&amp;#039;s&amp;#039; even footage shot on board Sebastian Vettel&amp;#039;s Red Bull F1 car. And, if you had looked closely at the side of the rear wings on the Marussia F1 cars during the FIA Formula 1 Championships in Budapest, Hungary back in July you would have seen the Drift logo as the company was a team partner.  The $399 Drift HD Ghost camera is also waterproof down to a depth of 9 feet and includes a 2-inch LCD screen on the side so you can see what is being captured. Lots of fun to be had with this one.
