Grundy Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Want something for Combe and other events. Got a really good camera available, but it's not the most practical for in car use etc. so just curious if anyone has something they use to record track days etc that is a bit cheaper. Quote

-Bradders- Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 i have one of these and despite it being the cheapest camera ever, it does the job and i can see the numberplates clearly and it picks up my dodgy singing quite easily lol. Can youtube the camera's to see the qualitty http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1280P-Hd-2-5-Lcd-Night-Vision-CCTV-In-Car-Dvr-Accident-Camera-Video-Recorder-/390658068476?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5af5090ffc Quote
AliveBoy Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Unfortunately, GoPro's are the most popular for a reason, there's nothing which compares! http://www.dogcamsport.co.uk/ are pretty good, the drift cameras as Steve says are also good. Quote
rabbitstew Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I use a Contour HD. It had excellent review and a bit cheaper than the go pro. I also prefer it as its slimmer/better looking rather than being like a bulky cigarette packet. It comes with various mounts so is good to go out of the box. I use a clamp for my mountain bike handle bars and a helmet shaped bracket which sticks to the side of my motorbike crash helmet. As with most of these, the camera takes SD cards, so bunged a 32gb card in and its good to go. Every time im out on my motorbike i just clip I just clip the camera in and off you go. Its also waterproof. 1 Quote

-Bradders- Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 you wont be disappointed with the quality for £12 lol. its 720p and very clear even when watching back on the pc. Quote
Jetpilot Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) The Garmin Virb is also a great camera, massive battery life compared to most others, with a bit of hunting they can be had for under £200. http://www.amazon.co...rds=garmin virb Edited March 12, 2014 by Jetpilot 1 Quote
Ekona Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 I wubs my GoProHD3 very much The + looks even better, but I'm not tempted to swap. Not yet, anyway. Quote
Grundy Posted March 12, 2014 Author Posted March 12, 2014 Judging by all the suggestions, only alternatives are max a £150 cheaper, rather just pay the price, cheers guys Quote
