FULLY WIRELESS DIGITAL HELMET CAMERAS

[Throwdown]

Good enough for my purposes at this price, but if you're serious event recording people then NAH!

I think it goes at 15fps. <i></i>

Is this the camera that people have been getting? Leigh

The spec and price looks the same, but the packaging on this is more flash. However, it looks heavier, as mine sits on my helmet with just velcro. <i></i>

I got one of the Oregon Scientific ones which is proving a bit of a bitch to mount on my helmet.

You get 2 mounts with it and the camera clips onto them.

The clip idea is great but the first mount is really for a pushie helmet as its held on by straps that are supposed to go through the vents on the hat.

The second mount is for handle bars which I have butchered off the handle bar surround and will bolt the rest of the mount into the helmet. Just need the right length bolt now. Drlling holes in helmets.....yetch but it's a good reason to get a new one if it all sucks.

The one I've got doesn't weigh much but I can't see it staying on with velcro.

Will let you know after I've extracted my finger and got it setup.

Oh it's totally wireless takes up to a 2 gig sd card uses normal AA batteries. Theres no viewer so I may end up moving the hole.
Focus fixed 1.5 to infinity
max storage 640x480 30 or 15 frames per/sec ( 2 gig card will record for an hour at 30 fps at 640x480)
avi
interface usb or straight to tv
40mm dia 110 long
water proof to 3 meters but I'm not going to try that one out. Snorkels look ugly on bikes
Has sound
