Hi I was searching around for a video recorder to clip on my helmet like the GoPro but a bit cheaper.

I have seen this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Polaroid-XS100-Extreme-Edition-HD-1080p-16MP-Waterproof-Sports-Action-Camera-/271238159614?pt=UK_AudioTVElectronics_Video_Camcor ders&hash=item3f270ddcfe

Was just wondering if anyone knew any other good video recorders in which I could have a look at.

Thanks,
Kieran

Never seen one of those before so can't comment.

The Drift HD is pretty good though, it's what I use. You can see examples on my channel.

You can get second hand drifts on fleaBay now as the new ones out.

I've got a drift HD 170 which is now discontinued, they come up on Amazon and eBay for not much money, I've been impressed by mine.

That's what I first bought for £120 but it broke and because they had been discontinued Drift replaced it with their new ~£200 Drift HD. I thought that was really nice of them. :)

Can't complain about the Drift. The little screen really helps line up your shots and the included remote makes it easy to start and stop recording.

However that Polaroid does look decent for that price.

I've heard good things about the ContourHD. You can't really go wrong with either the Drift, GoPro or the Contour.

I have been looking at this. For £107 seems very good value.

How much you looking to spend? I have a GoPro Hero 960 I could sell you?
