    Doing some experimenting which I won't go into great detail about ;) will let you know what footage is like. Dunno if anyone already has one ? May buy a cheapo fort bike. Will see if you deffo need an expensive one or not. Need one I can take the memory card out quite quickly to eat it lmfao

    Ive had a few different cameras, GoPro was the best but obviously much more. The ChilliCam (Think thats what it was called) was pretty cool too, was like a bullet cam, could stick it pretty much anywhere. Seem to have misplaced mine though lol. Love the fall in prices for cams though.

    Well had a play with it and, it's cheap and cheerfull but nowhere near go pro , drift , contour , möbius etc etc.
    I charged it up for 12 hrs and plonked it on my windscreen after setting the thing up. Entered time and date also full 1080hd mode. Battery failed after less than 15 minutes !!! Charged again and was exactly the same. I liked this because of the size of it and it feels very good quality. Went through the menus easy . Can be used at night as it has infra red LEDs on the front for night mode. Also can be used as a live webcam. Or 5 megapixel camera . Which has 4x zoom
    Poor battery life meant it needed plugging into the car cig lighter power point and the lead trailing up the car dash and up to the windscreen which I didn't want. Anyway uploaded the video of a short car drive. And I wasn't impressed , even on full hd the video was very grainy , and not 100% smooth (bit jerky)
    Don't get me wrong it was not bad but not up to the quality of video my 3 yr old iPhone 4s can take. And certainly nowhere near go pro etc. so me point is if you want shit hot footage you need to spend way more than £25.
    Never tried the other lower quality shooting modes as I don't think it's gunna be as good as I would like. But hey ho it's only £25 wasted.

    I use a cheapy dash cam in the car. Quality isn't fantastic but good enough. You really do need to have them connected to a power supply though.
