Thats pretty cool mate :D

Have you got anymore information on those FinishLynx cameras?


Not really, your best bet for more info is the website.

I love horses and used to work alsoat a race track a long time ago (Woodbine, Toronto)..
But my work was more related to the horse and I have no clue what you are talking about with the slice and lines and all...
Could you please go in more details...
I hate not understandng something :(
Thanks for your patience :)


Kratos just explained this perfectly in his post.

You should take a normal picture of the track and compare it with the slices and post it here.

Thanks for the explanation ^_^ I'll consider taking a normal picture to compare the two. I just don't feel much like taking my d80 etc along with all the gear I already have to take. I usually take the Lynx camera, 3 lenses for it, 2 laptops, printer, cords (2 ethernet, capture + manual start button / cords, gate switch, serial port cord, power cords to camera + laptops, mouse, extension cords, surge protector), the hub thingy, tripod, bright orange cones, photo paper, table, chairs, and snacks and I think that about covers it... I'm sure you see what I'm getting at...

That's awesome. Although I don't quite understand it. What do you make money from? Taking the picture and selling it or?


Really I get paid because I am more or less the finish line judge. I also sell the images after I print them. Lol, lots of people make wagers on these races (sometimes big ones). Strange as it sounds, people will buy the photos just cause the horse they bet on made them money haha...

If I won a good bit of money from it I would buy the picture and say to everyone "...and that's what made me rich." Hehe...

Haha I was kind of wondering if you were the finish line judge, it seemed like it since you were taking photos of the finish line. Nice!
