Track Camera for £20

[Mike]

I saw this link for the camera on CS, and I was mighty cynical about it. So I parted with the £20, plus the £12 for a memory card....

This was just a test video I made today (I know the date etc is out) - I was quite surprised for a £20 camera. The quality of the video was awesome before I shrunk it to web size.

Here it is:

And the link to the camera:

Best to get Micro SD Class 6 memory 8GB card...

Can get the camera for £17 on ebay aswell if your happy to bid instead of BIN.

 

[Mike]

Yeah thats true mate, but I am not a bidder lol!!!

You can BIN from China for £12,99 too, but you run the risk of China Post/Royal Mail lol!

 

[Graeme GTR]

think that could be attached to the lower grill? always wanted a camera that low like something from getaway in stockholm =D

 

[stumac1985]

Pretty sure that its been mounted on the 172/182 lower grille on CS, so yes.

 

[Mike]

They are the size of your little finger too - tiny lol.

Mountable anywhere!

 

[Graeme GTR]

ah, the picture on ebay just looked bigger, daft question and I no i should just search, but do these have a mic in them?

 

[Mike]

Yes they do - I think there's sound on my video???

 

[Graeme GTR]

speakers were switched off (feels stupid) this is awesome, and cheap. Consider it bought. For £20 can you give a reason not to ?

 

[Paul]

Thats a pretty good deal Mike - I just can think of anywhere to be able to use it.... Haha

 

[Mike]

I had no reason for it. But you, Paul, will need it when you come to Germany. Which you are, otherwise you know the consequences

 

[Paul]

Lol yeah that might be one thing! Would be useful to show the insurers exactly where it went wrong.... Hahaha

 

[Mike]

Hehehehe, true. But you will come though

 

[Paul]

Lol.... You wont get me that easily!

Its looking likely though!

[Mike]

I clipped mine to the passenger headrest. I'll find a better place!

How do you get rid of the clock????

 

[withoutabix]

i have no idea i think imovie cropped the vid without me noticing during editing lol

 

[jaxx]

Thats actually impressive concidering the price! Id also assume Youtube has raped the quality a little bit too, as there some pretty heavy pixlation on withoutabix vids?

I want cams for mine and have been looking at DogCams and stuff like Flip and Creative, but these are bargain bin, even if you loose them while on a drive!
