|SnOmAn| Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I'm not to worried about sound. If you put it behind the windscreen somehow, then it should be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyler524 Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I think I might get the "New Vehicle overwrite Camcorder DV DVR spy car camera" one that the same people are selling. It is 23.90 and can use up to a 16gb card, supposed to be good for all weather, and comes with a suction mount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jporter12 Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I was looking at this one for $1, then saw that they charge $6.47 each for shipping, making it almst $65 in just shipping for 10 of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you need 10? 10 different angles on the bike? Hey that might be pretty cool actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obesityrules Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 picked up an md80, a wide angle lens, and an 8gig card. total was around $26. will post results when everything gets in from HK. the 'inside helmet mount' is pretty sickhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vsxFcVpgmI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Why do you need 10? 10 different angles on the bike? Hey that might be pretty cool actually.At a buck each, why not have spares? That and take a shipping hit and sell them to a few other people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtremef4i Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Im going to look into this frther as well. the video quality is great for the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessecwalters Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 theres another little camera, like this that I bought awhile ago, 24 shipped from hongkong with a 4gb sd card, its called like mini md80 or something like that.. Theyre pretty neat. The one i bought came with all kinds of stuff tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YSR_Racer_99 Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Okay, did anyone follow through on this? I did. Bought two cams, and two fisheye lenses. Neither of the cameras work. Seller issued a refund for both (though I still lost about $12 for shipping). Pretty disappointed. Won't fully charge (according to the very interesting instructions), or do anything. Maybe I'm missing something. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevysoldier Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 I was actually just thinking about this the other day, wondered if anyone tried one. Sucks to hear they didn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruit Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 I got two of the MD80 cameras and simply use a piece of velcro to hold it inside my helmet. *If you attach any cheap camera to the bike itself the vibration will make the video unusable* (A more expensive camera will have digital stabilization to make up for most of that)Here's a quick clip from my inside-the-helmet MD80:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LEmwhgTWiY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessecwalters Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Mine worked fine, it was the mini md80 i believe. Works fine, I have uploaded video on vimeo somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffmine would record for like 2 secs, then die. i tried multiple usb cables too... that site that has all of the crazy info on those cameras had a list of sellers who sold good product. maybe i should have checked that.

YSR_Racer_99 Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Uhm, maybe a stupid question: Do I need to insert a Micro SD card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
