Narrative Clip Oddities
I used a Narrative Clip on three bike rides, capturing more than 4,000 photos. Most were unremarkable, few were worth keeping, many were blurry or distorted. Five of the better photos are posted in Scenes from a Commute. Five of the oddest are featured here.

The descent jostled the camera, which captured many photos of my front wheel. A JPEG expert could probably explain what went wrong with this one.
Purple haze on the Stevens Creek Trail.
The wooden planks on this bridge make for a bumpy ride. The camera doesn't cope well with vibration.
There were plenty of distorted images, evidently motion-induced. This office building really stands out. Blurry, I can understand. In focus but wavy, I do not understand.
Sadly, the Clip arrived too late to capture four generations at a dual 90th birthday party earlier this year. Those were some moments I could imagine keeping.

Learn something new, every day. Some experts have weighed in, attributing the distortion in photos 4 and 5 to the Narrative Clip's rolling shutter: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_shutter
