           I have been trying to get my video camera to work in my Corvette 
when on the track. It's a Sony Hi-8 TR-716 with the anti shake feature. I'm 
really having two problems. The first is with the focus. When I use the auto 
focus feature it's too slow
to react to the changing images in a race car. All you see is a blur. The 
second is the field of view is too narrow. The camera is mounted behind me on 
the roll cage.
The field of view is maybe 30 degrees wide. It has a wide mode but it doesn't 
work with the anti shake feature. Any help or recommendations would be 
appreciated.
If I ever have an on track incident, I want to be able to have it on tape. 
Nuf said.
TIA.
