That's not half bad picture quality for the price Tunnie! As Skruntie said earlier, I wouldn't mind trying one in the car. How much video time does the memory card give you? :y

Its 720p resolution, in the states thats classed as HD  :o

Its also been reduced slightly in quality for you tube!

Time wise its about 1Gb per 30 mins or so, i've not fiddled with other modes yet  :-/  - Can read cards up to 8Gb, although not sure if the battery is up to that

I have purchased one to mount on the front bogie of the loco......to allow me to do (following editing) a Ruddington to Loughborough in 60 seconds film.

Vibration should not be an issue as the 113 tons damps things quite well!

Sorry Tunnie, just checked the listing for your camera - it's not 720p. The spec is 720x480 so the 720 refers to the horizontal resolution, not the vertical.

Still looks a good deal though, just thinking about how I could mount one on my bike.... something involving the mirror mount possibly...

Thanks for correction  :y

Considering mirror mount too, maybe on the hand guard, or possibly on the one of the shocks  :-/
