Anyone have any experience of these?

Basically I bought a GSXR recently and fancied the idea of having some video footage of my riding (on the road and when I get round to my first trackday!), and have absolutely no idea on the best way to achieve this.

Having trawled through Biker Banter for this subject, the cam above seems to be recommended and what I'm after i.e. cheap, doesn't require a camcorder, decent quality etc etc.

I'm after anyones opinions/experiences of this camera and also a little technical info; can I buy more than one card to swap in & out & therefore increase the recording capacity or are you limited to the one for some reason (max. 2GB which I believe is good for an hour so footage)? Also, how does the cam cope with vibration? And lastly, what's the deal with the mountings? Can I get something to mount it to the bike as well as my helmet (tee hee!) or is it helmet only?

Apologies for general ignorant nature of first post in here! smile

And please bear in mind that technical A/V terms & numbers will only serve to confuse me! wink

Hi

Bikes aside (cough)... the camera is way too feeble for your needs. I have one on my dog (no, really) and I wouldn't put it on my pushbike, let alone my car or bike.

Get a bulletcam from www.rfconcepts.co.uk and plug it into you camcorder (with AV in) ... It's the only way to go.
