Needs a little more!! - Samuel M. Capel, Mar 08, 2010

For $50.00 USD its really not a good buy.

I did not like this item because if it is bumped it will freeze up and stop working and you will loose all the video you just recorded. Also when I got it I could not put the data card in because there was a little piece of plastic crammed down in side the slot.

If it was shock resistant to small bumps then it would be a good buy but every time its bumped there goes all my filming. Pain in the butt.

Great for the price! - Mike Palin, Aug 22, 2009

I did not want to pay $50 for the cam not knowing the quality. Found it on here for $30 after shipping. Used it in my race car and was supprised in the quality even under the lights at night. You will need a bigger memory card if you want vids longer than 4-7 min. The sound quality not great, can get out of sync. Aiming the cam is a little dificult but the laser makes it a little easier. The program is easy to download vids but not as good for editing. If you are expecting a perfect quality camera don't get this. If you are looking for an inexpensive way to record some decent footage this is worth it. I would even pay the [...] that I was not willing to spend before I used it. Check out a sample here [....]

Save your money - Slav B. Shuravesky, Apr 28, 2009

If you want to get dark and grainy videos with unsynchronized sound, then by all means go ahead and buy this camera. Even on a bright sunny day the captured footage leaves a lot to be desired. The angle of view is tiny. The resolution is tiny and the frame rate is extremely low. If you are doing any activity that involves a lot of movement (why else would you buy this camera?) you will end up with a very jumpy and confusing video.

This camera is promoted as a great bargain, but unfortunately in this case you get exactly what you paid for - a novelty store item that will end up collecting dust in the back of the same drawer that you dump your obsolete cell phones in.

If you really want to get decent quality first person videos, you will have to shell out upwards of $100-$150 for an Oregon Scientific or Tachyon XC. If you try to do it on the cheap with this camera, you will still end up with an Oregon Scientific or Tachyon XC except it will cost you an extra $30 plush shipping.

Cannot beat the price - Don Fernandez, Jan 28, 2009

Sure, it is a bit jumpy when taking action shots. But a helmet cam with built in camera and easy SD card memory at this price is pretty unbelievable. Would not suggest it for professional use, but very fun for private use. Movies did download to our computer easily.

perfect Christmas gift - Thorsten R. Fleiter, Jan 15, 2009

absolut great for a first time action camera. creates hours of playtime-and that's what I bought it for. the double function as webcam was was welcomed too.
good quality for the price. sure it is not as fast as alternatives probably are - but that doesn't really matter for the intended purpose of capturing "action"
