i've been hearing nothing but good things about the new GoPro system,
www.motosport.com has them and i think they are under 200
I have a GoPro helmet cam. I like it takes pretty good quality videos, and can also take pictures. They just came out with a new model that has a wider lens on it that would be nice to have.
If you were to get one get the motorsports hero version comes with a bunch of mounts that will work with your helmet.
the standard lens that i have is 179.99 and the wide is 199.99
It uses 2 aaa batteries, best to use lithium ones, and records to a 2gb memory card that is good for about a hour of video

have you guys ever had any problems with that model?Looks pretty cool..The one he had was shaped like a bullet...Does the squareness of this one get in the way at all?

where did you get yours?
I haven't had any problems with mine, Only thing I really dont like is that its kind of hard to tell when your recording, have to watch for a red blinking light on the lens. But other then that I like mine. Haven't had mine get in the way at all either with it mounted on the side of my helmet, i've hit a few branches in tight trails but thats about it.

Robin hood......have you mounted it to your atv and not the helmet? :devil: It probably would look like Dorthy in the tornado in the Wizard of Oz. Spinning and jumping around and around. Nice video! Got more?
