Looking to join the masses and get a helmet cam. Don't know how much use it will get so have set a budget of around 50 quid. Seen the Action Cam 3 hd on amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/Action-Cam-3-HD-720P/dp/B005PK5J74/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1335641010&sr=8-4. Any thoughts ?

Cheers, Graham

A good tip is to attach the lanyard to the camera throught the hole at he top,and also to tape it to whatever part of the bike or you youre filming from, almost lost mine a few nights ago as the little clamp decided to break,and as it was on the back of the seat pillar, only the lanyard stoped it commiting suicide, or drowning ina deep puddle.

just on that...there are two models..."basic" and "pro"
pro goes to 30fps and I think the official muvi version of the basic is 20fps.
