Today I bought a Vivitar helmet camera here www.vivitar.com/products/2/digital-video-recorders/908/dvr-480 from Kmart for 30 dollars on sale from 40 . Its only 1.3 MP but for cheap and has strap and a tube clamp mount . It also has a silcone cover to prevent rain from hurting it . Its small enough that I can hide it under my hand . It uses sdcard which is good since I wanted a solid state ( no moving parts ) DVR to play around with . I lost my old card so I will get a 16G ( max supported ) and video some rides . Yes it will be grainy but I have to wait until after the holidays before I can get a HD one but for 30 dollars should have some fun with it .It uses .avi file type and I will see if I can convert to Divx , .flv or other codec .
I also bought a Vivatar 12 MP camera but it was fried so I returned it . I want a good 10MP+ camera thats under 100 to take shots of the pretty places I live near , as well as my scooter . I wish I could afford a SLR but 3 kids keep me broke . So any feedback on camera use and suggestions would be nice . Note must be pocketsize and zoom . I went up Paris Mountain today and I would love to share the views I see at the summit .
I have several pics in my phone ( crappy 3MP ) of my scooter including the VIN and tag and pics of me on it in case of theft . I had a guy walk in front of me so I would stop . His scooter was stolen and wanted to look at mine . I understand how he felt as I would be in a bipolar rage if mine was stolen . I keep mine locked up and have full coverage ins .If you keep in garage or carport , homeowners ins . may cover theft since it was in the house rather than on the driveway .
I would like to see more pics and vids posted here
