Cool N[]va!!!
I like the angle of the camera, is that the new video camera that u tested?
That front wheel never really dug to deep into the sand!!

yea thats was the ContourHD camera I was testing, the 690 is a joy to ride in sand just floats over every thing :D

Hi N[]vA, what do u think about the ContourHD, are u going to buy one??
Do one get a 12V charger for the camera as well??
I will post a full review but the short answer is no I wont... its simple not designed to be used in the conditioned we use it in. I have higher hopes for the other two I'm testing.

No 12v, also cant record while charging
 
WOW freakin awesome  :thumleft: You need to do the "tailectomy" on your 690  :deal:

How did you mount the camera in the diff places? Does it have a remote control?

It comes with a small adhesive mount that I stuck to the side of my bash plate and a goggle strap mount (great mount that 1) no remote.

kk lemme save all this info for the review lol

Why can't I see the clip?  I have FlashPlayer 10.1 installed.
Can you watch other youtube clips?

if so just hit refresh untill it plays
 
Cool, Im looking forward to the "test report"!!

12V is very important, if u wants to use it in your car or bike on a long offroad trip with no 220V for a few days!!!

Cheers!!

Agreed, there are several things that as I see it are just a plain simple make or break requirement and it all comes down to practicality..... sure you can carry 10 spare batteries and 30 SD cards with you if you really wanted to. On the other hand I like to stay focused on enjoying the riding while I'm out riding :p

Excellent camera views of what the tires are doing. Questions ; :peepwall: What speed were you doing and what tires were on the bike?

Looks lekker N[]V! Where is this spot...this Zen garden of yours?

You say the cam is not up to abuse. What sand? Shaking? Ploughing?

yea its not built for it, not that it would die but it needs allot of cleaning

int he sand once moving any thing from like avg 50 - 80 and those are TKC80's fair shot though as the front now has like 16 000 km's on it. almost time to replace :deal:
