i was already stopped, does not count, plus i did not "drop it", i made the decision put it down gracefully as my leg would not easly hold it up

Aiptek dv8900 + Sporty Cam





Package was £100 from Maplin, got it in October 08, unfortunately I don’t think they stock it anymore.

DV8900 runs on nokia battery, cheap to buy and lasts two hours (recording), takes max size 2GB SD cards, which gives about 2hrs footage at 640x480 in .ASF format. The best spec about it is that it works as a media recorder/player with a AV in. (last time I checked other brands with this spec starts at £200) New models may have the same AV in spec at the same price? It can also be use by itself as a camcorder and take stills (has flash, but photo quality is no great, I would stick with digi cam)

The Sporty cam runs on 2 AAA and last a long time (30hrs?) with mic built in and AV out, splash proof (but I wouldn’t want to test it in the rain!) Lens angle could be wider but good enough for now! It copes well in low/hi contrast transitions, adjusting fast enough so that it isn’t to much blackouts or whiteouts (check start of SSD09 when emerging from underpass) Works will in low light conditions too (will upload a indoor paintball session vid soon) It also seem to cope well with fast movements. Sound is ok except at high speed...

As these are separate components, it can be upgraded as required, hopefully a cam with a wider len...

Mounting the camera is easy, duct tape it to the SV (Lydden) or one better, buy suction pads off and add cable ties then stick it to head (SSD09, tested up to 70mph) or bodywork.

Once down loaded onto the PC the picture quality is good (U Tube does no justice to it! If you know any tricks please let me know!) If you fancy seeing the original footage just PM me to arrange a CD in the post.

The price is reflected in the build quality and interface (non-intuitive software etc) so needs to be handle with a bit of care. Otherwise it does the intended job very well and I would recommend this setup as a cheap & cheerful onboard camera!

Cheers

the music is ‘Get a Move On’ by 'Mr.Scruff' from album ‘Keep it Unreal’

Yep, on the same setup but with camera stuck to different places!
