Bike Mounted Video Cameras

[Monkeyfish]

Just after a few comments and suggestions (smart ass ones accepted) regarding bike mountable video cameras. I've been searching the net and don't want to spend a great deal of money as this would be my first go at this. I have come across the "ContourHD 1080p" which seems like a reasonable cam for what it is. It looks like you can mount it in all sorts of positions (minds out of the gutter people) with the right attachments. Has anyone tried one of these little cams and what do you think?

Hi Monkeyfish,

I have that exact camera with a handlebar mount and a 16g micro SD card sitting in the shed waiting for me to get the bike back together. I will post some vid for you in a few weeks if you are still interested.
What I would say is that the GoPro does look the goods and I think it can take a 32g card? (might want to check that... )

Hi Toecutter

Agreed, the GoPro does seem to have all the goods but I do like the look of the ContourHD plus I think it it could be placed if a few more places than the GoPro. I have watched a few vids' on the net taken on the GoPro and they do look good, only thing I don't like is the fisheye effect, the view angle 170 degrees seems a little too wide, the ContourHD is 135.
