True, although I don't do trackdays so any videos can't technically be uploaded as they'd contain illegal activity.

How much does it weigh? Says it can be helmet mounted but wondered how as some say that then give you sticky pads, which I'm not putting on my helmet.

All sent mate.

One point to make, when you click the box to enter info, it comes up black, and as the background is black you can't see what you're typing, so you have to click off to check it, just a little niggle on the site

Wicked

It's a cool little camera Ash. And the mount is awesome, I made a quick video earlier to test it and see what the quality on YouTube was like:

I can't wait to play

How secure does the mount feel?

Very! The suction is really strong and that thing was no budging! We'll find out how it fairs up at speed tomorrow

Only confusing bit is the sound, you have 2 options, one blocks out wind noise and the the other is for when it's a quiet area kind of thing, trying to figure out which is which.

I can't wait

sound - I made a couple of vids this morning..... 1 on 'Hi' sound, 2 on 'lo'. The lo ones ( i think low ) have too much wind noise (esp the one at the front of the car in the wind. I also placed it on the rear bumper and it wasnt too bad. The HI sound one (the quieter one :lol was quite quiet, but you could still hear wind noise.

thats just a mini DV though really....

I have digicamcorder that I use in the car, these things are for outside. They are waterproof, and have a great selection of mounts that come with it.

I ran out of time today, was running around like a mad man so I could get out and then it was losing light

I still did a video but you can't see anything through my tinted screen so it's just speedo really, the camera didn't react very well to losing light, definetly needs good light! I'll chop it up and do a small clip, it's got fairly decent sound though

Pretty good quality that Adam, but as AK says this is so it can be mounted pretty much wherever there is a surface that can be stuck too. I've just had mine stuck to my side fairing doing a ton roughly and it held up fine, definetly got my trust

That video isn't at full res either, proper one looks HD even on a 42" LCD.

Looking at getting something like one of these

Definetly worth every penny those suckers!

This isn't amazing quality, certainly not like yours, but it's perfect for doing videos for pissing about and to upload on YouTube which tbh is pretty much all I'm gonna use it for
