Kelpie, the Drift Stealth 2 does virtually the same and is only £100 now. Battery life is 3 hours, but to make it so small they ditched the full colour screen used for reviewing videos. I never use it for that anyway, and am tempted to buy the Stealth 2 too. The fact that they're already waterproof and ready to go is what attracts me..... GoPro wotnot's are quite possibly better in final quality, but you can get very close for not much money.
Â
I used it in 'Car DVR mode, which is good as an accident cam...it just keeps deleting the oldest vids and replaces them with the latest, in a circular buffer. A 32GB memory card gives about 5 hours without any deleting happeing (at the highest quality)....at lower quality 720P (still HD)Â a 32GB card can go for longer.
Â
It came with a remote control too, so you can stop/start recording whenever you want and also take still images whenever you like. I don't think the remote is standard with a Stealth 2, it costs about £20 extra, but without it you can still stop/start and take stills by using the case buttons
Â
What i wish they had is 'image stabilisation' because when fitted to my helmet the camera moves with my head, up and down, and makes annoying footage. I need to run it through a video editor and add image stabilisation afterwards. but fixed to the fairing in the above fairing it seemed to be much better.
Â
Having some video editing software is really useful, even Windows 'Movie Maker', which is a freebie, is more than enough to get the job done. Bear in mind that 5 minutes at 1080P (high definition) uses about 250MB of disc space !
