Hello, Here is a short clip of me swimming. It was shot using a Pentax Optio M10 camera. The 10M mov file was then uploaded to Youtube. The quality doesn't seem to be very good.
So, any advice on whatever you can tell about the swim and/or advice on how to upload/shoot better videos is much appreciated and thanked in advance.

Your stroke count in both video's is about 20. This is way too high even for sprinting. Work on extending your stroke with more body roll. Try a video of slow swimming. this can be more revealing. Just to keep it in perspective an elite swimmer can go 10-12 strokes holding a pace quicker than your's for a 500 or 1000.
Overall I think you have a great starting point. There is not alot terribly wrong here that I can see.
