Ebay linky

What are your thoughts on this folks? Thinking about potentially using it for recording runs on the dragster...

I appreciate the quality is not fantastic, but I'm after footage for the web as opposed to an epic HD presentation!

Cheers folks..

I can see that you'd want it as its lightweight but I see its maximum frame rate is 15fps at 640x480 pixels so you'll probably get videos that look a bit jerky. For your proposed application 320x240 at 30 fps would be better and you can get that from sub £100 digital cameras nowadays.

See the above link for the Oregon Scientific ATC-1000 (bringing out a 30fps soon).
