  • "Great camera but the mount is a bit cumbersome"
    3.5 stars
    on by tkessler

    Pros: The camera has great quality, convenient alignment lasers, and is light and compact

    Cons: The mounting rails are a bit cumbersome. Sliding them on and off can be tough at times.

    Summary: The camera is a great camera with the option to rotate the lens so no matter where it is placed you can get a picture that isn't tilted. The GPS features are also nice though sometimes do not track correctly, but it still gives you the general area where you are at. The camera is very lightweight and sleek, but does have a couple of drawbacks. The first is the on/off button at the back can sometimes be tough to activate, and the mounting rails are a bit difficult to work so it's hard to mount. This means it also is very unlikely it will fall off when riding or playing, but there ought to be another option than the slide rails.

    The last issue is with how it handles video. Currently it records until full and then stops, but it would be very nice to have an option to record continuously, overwriting initial videos once the card is full. It would also be nice to have an external audio jack so when mounted to a helmet you can have a microphone next to your mouth for commentary. There's nothing worse than cranking on a cool video only to have your ears blasted by wind sounds.

    Hi,
    I have 5 different mounting systems for mine from the car , bike or Jetski , T rail system works for me
    it has an external Mike jack , only wearable camera to do so.
    Also if you have it doint cycle record , then there is the chance to overwrite something you do not want to. I have 32 gig card that lasts 8 hours before I have to download it or change to another one
