I'm looking to buy a helmet cam as a kind of insurance policy if anything should happen on my daily commute - more close shaves recently has made me consider this. I don't have a wedge to buy a top line 1080p cam, but I could probably afford to spend £50 or so on it right now. I've seen a lot of cheap ones on eBay but it's difficult to spot the goodens in amongst all the tat.

A couple I've seen that look like the same cam? -

This is the sort of thing I think I'm after anyway. Any advice or reviews/experience of the cheap cams from China would be great. What should I be looking for?

  • Haven't got any info regarding different types but i have an ATC3K which has only been used once.. PM me if interested, could get it posted to you and you'd have a bit of change from your £50

    it seems like a good camera but haven't used it for biking I actually bought it for a different project (to put inside a puppet head - don't ask) but it was too big unfortunately so has sat unused.
