Birthdays coming up & I have no idea what I want but the other half suggested a helmet camera as I use my bike for my daily commute, but what to go for?

Limit I suppose is around £180 & she has done a little bit of research already & found these:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/GoPro-Camera-He ... or+Edition

So any of the above any good? Or is there something else I should be looking at? The Go-Pro looks quite bulky to be honest so not sure on that.

Thanks,

Russ

    I went for the GoPro Hero 3 (smaller than Hero 2) but I have it mounted to the bars as I felt I'd look a tit with it on the helmet.

    Life is like riding a bicycle: you don't fall off unless you stop pedaling.

    That's the thing, I really want it on my helmet to capture what I see.

    Anyone else any other ideas?

    Ring Mark at DogCam. He's a really helpful guy and can give you the best advice. He certainly won't sell you crap that doesn't fit your needs.
    I ride a bike. Doesn't make me green or a tree hugger. I drive a car too.
