I used it like 2 times, to see how easy it works. loved it, and the picture quality looked great.
then stored it for a for weeks, charged up the battery, since it did not want to turn on. will not turn on after multiple attempts of charges, even bought a new HD battery…what a waste… would not recomend product.

Returned the product. I was expecting something a little beefier for over $300, there appeared to be a lot of very easily breakable parts or at least portions of the product that over time would wear out VERY easily. I will wait until the entire housing is aluminum before I’d buy this one. The back cover is rubber and held on with two little rubber band looking attachments and the bottom of the product is all plastic. The only aluminum portion is the video camera tube itself. If it was all aluminum and sealed well with a hinge instead of those rubber band looking deals…I would have kept it, but this product is just begging to be broke or wear out over time. I realize for HD video…this is pretty cheap…but in this case you get what you pay for.

I returned this item as I found it to be basically a helmet cam use only. It is small compact and is ok for the above application. I was looking for a video cam with a little more versatility, finding a better stable mount was difficult if not impossible, dash board and window mount too shaky, sound below par. Buying a small regular video cam would be better and easier to use. Turning off and on was tricky, would cause shooting angle too change direction.

Well designed, well built product! I had a minor problem with the software which was expertly handled with a phone call. The customer service was the best I have every had for ANY electronic product. They know what they are doing!!! Surprise!!!

I used this for alpine skiing and was surprised at the quality of the video. The goggle strap mount was very stable even in moguls and racing. All around a good buy. The only draw backs are large video file size (about a meg or more per second on hi res) and the on/off button on the back of the camera is somewhat difficult to push. It would be nice if the company made a head harness for hiking, trekking, etc. The software seems easy to use.
