Casper Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 I'm looking for a camcorder for the bike. I'd like something that records to solid state media like SD cards or the such. DVR. Anybody know of anything that works well? I've found a few, but none seemed to have good reviews. Just wondering if anyone has used one of these or has any suggestions.

flounder Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Most of the solid state media players are not where they need to be with resolution and capacity yet.. if you only want to film for short periods then ok but other then that get a mini-dv cam and buy a helmet cam/pen cam attachment.. Thats what i did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted March 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Do you have any problems with the bouncing around? I've been kinda worried that the camcorder would get fucked up. I've thought about getting one of the harddrive based DV camcorders, but the shock to the drive can't be good for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flounder Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Check this page for some tipshttp://flandersland.tzo.com/CameraTips.htmIt really depends on how long your going to be recording and what quality you want... Unless you get solid state devices, your going to have to pad the inside of your trunk and make sure everything is nice and solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
