A look at what is currently available on eBay
What's the best type helmet cam to buy, bullet cam or other, for ATV racing, & what camcorder type is good?
I want to buy a helmet cam for a friend that he can use when he's riding/racing his dirt bike. I've considered bulletcam.com and helmetcam.com and don't know which is better. Bullet cams or other types? One says they make them themselves, stabilizing every part and offer quick-release feature; but the other says it offers better camera protection w/ better video than the bullet cams. What line resolution should I get? 380/480/560? What features/accessories are essential? And what kind of camcorder can I get for a decent price that will go with the helmet cam and render good videos? (I know I have to have input capability). Thanks for any help! I'm clueless.
I'd stick to the helmet cams and avoid the bulletcams for now... just because bulletcams are a little more complicated. Look for a cam with resoloution about 440 (480 is normal). Make sure you have easy adaptable recording and transfering capabilities (hook up to dvd player/computer/vcr). I've included some good links that will answer your question in more depth.
