Title: Helmet cameras
Post by: MarkN on Friday, 20 May 2022, 08:06 PM
Does anyone have any opinions on decent, reasonably priced helmet or other bike mounted type cameras? In 2018 I bought a Ghost camera, I forget the model, which gave good picture/video quality but lots of wind noise. Used it once on a trip through France and Germany the following year and when I needed it again in 2020, when we were briefly allowed out during lockdown it wouldn't work. It would charge up and keep the charge but refused to do anything. Any recommendations would be appreciated.  This would seem to be a common failing from what I've since found on internet searches :computer_type:

Look at the INNOVV range - fit and forget and often you can find some good secondhand deals on eBay

I have the K3 fitted to my machine, and the picture quality is pretty good, sound not so much, but I bought it for the pictures, not the sound. If you want sound as well - more so perhaps if you are doing a blog - the then K5 is the one to look at.

Previous version of the K3 (the K2) is also pretty good and a bit cheaper

I have a Sena 4K camera/Bluetooth that works well. Only has about 1 hour of camera time before needing a recharge. I also have front & rear Dashcam as well on a 4hr loop at 1080 res.
