"Easy to use and takes reliable high quality footage." on by rugger45
Pros: Reliable to use
One button recording even with gloves
water resistant
loads of mounts
easy to upload video
easy to use manualCons: doesnt take still photos
need to log on computer to change setting
goggle mount angles a bit like when using skiingSummary: Coming from an unreliable Go Pro i found this far superior despite a few less features. has been supremely reliable and never had an issue with recording footage.Would be better if was fully waterproof without the extra casing (however the new Roam sorts this out)

"HD, ultralight, 2-3BL - ContourHD the way to go." on by FlexxyPad
Pros: High definition - 1080p , the highest HD and the best video quality
Weight - doesn't feel like you're wearing it.
Just like a usb - plug in, take video, plug out.
Water Resistant
replaceable/rechargeable battery - 2-3 hoursCons: Goggle Mount - not much use (snowboarding) when its flopping around on the side of your head
Summary: Love it, well worth it.

Pros: sleek design, great HD quality, durable, reliable, easy to mount, easy to use, presettings, Vholdr community

Summary: i've used a good amount of cameras in my day and i love the Contour HD. i've mounted it in several places and found it versatile enough to fit almost every situation. great all around helmet cam for the price.

"Best Helmet Cam on the market." on by FiSHGRAPHICS
Pros: Small, Lightweight, Great Quality, Excellent locking mechanism, Rugged (steel body), One handed use, LARGE record button, EXTREMELY small media type with VERY large memory capabilities (16GB Micro SD Card - sold separately)
Cons: Included software not the best for editing, AND you HAVE to use the included software to update the device. Poor Low light shooting.
Summary: This camera is small and light. Uses the H.264 Quicktime Codec which allows file size to stay ultra small while the video and audio quality is top notch. The included software isn't the best in the world, but this is a camera company... not a software company. With this camera, Final Cut Pro, and After Effects.... you can do anything you want. I highly recommend this camera, it's extremely fun.
