Repurpose old gear

I've had the Nikon V1 since it came out.....obviously never became what i intended it to be. Was late to sell it, so end up keeping it. I've tried multiple times to repurpose it. Finally think I found a good use for it, video. I also recently purchased a xiaomi yi camera and so end up attaching it on top to get a super wide view.

Bottom setup:
- Nkon V1
- C-mount adapter
- Kowa TV lens, 1:2 / 17-102mm
- Third party (eBay) 3x Magnifier viewer

Top setup:
- Nikon AS-N1000 Multi Accessory Port Adapter
- hotshoe miniball head (to attach camera)
- Xiaomi Yi camera
- Hotshot clamp to give me a place to attach iPhone bike mount
- iPhone bike mount

I'll update the post this weekend when I have better internet connection, with footage from this setup. I think it's worked out pretty sweet.
